Dear Tenth Street Families,
As we approach Teacher Appreciation Week next week, we want to take a moment to recognize and celebrate the incredible individuals who serve our students each day.
This week is an opportunity to intentionally pause and show appreciation for the dedication, commitment, and care our staff pours into their work. While academics are a central focus, our teachers and staff also invest deeply in the overall well-being of each child—supporting their social, emotional, and personal growth every single day.
This work is not always easy. In many classrooms, one teacher is responsible for 25 students, each with unique personalities, needs, and experiences. As parents and guardians, you understand how challenging it can be to meet the needs of even a few children at once—our staff does this daily with patience, empathy, and consistency.
We also want to recognize that it takes an entire team to support a school. Our cafeteria staff, along with all support staff, play a vital role in creating a safe, welcoming, and nurturing environment for our students. Every role within a school requires empathy, compassion, and a strong commitment to children.
If you are able, we encourage you to join us in showing appreciation—whether through a kind note, a message, or simply taking a moment to say “thank you.” These gestures go a long way in recognizing the meaningful work happening each day.
Thank you for your continued partnership and support.
Sincerely,
Mr. Suchocki, Principal
