Best of FPF: Quiche, Coffee, and Thanks to Teachers

It’s Teacher Appreciation Week across the region. Here are just a few of the many celebrations of educators that we thought were well worth a share:

Eileen in the Montpelier Forum explained that, “Each May MRPS PIE hosts a staff appreciation breakfast featuring fresh, locally made quiches from Peg’s Pantry. This year we held an Egg Drive and collected nearly 300 eggs, mostly from backyard chickens! Many thanks to all who donated!”

In the Calais Forum, the Friends of Calais invited “all educators who live or work in Calais to enjoy a complimentary coffee. Simply visit Adamant Coop, East Calais General Store, or the Maple Corner Community Store and mention the Friends of Calais Coffee Fund!”

Moriah shared a call-to-action in the Morrisville Forum (as well as a great collection of memories tied to favorite books and the teachers who read them). “Our schools are the backbone of our communities, so if you feel inclined to give thanks for the adults who every day work diligently to care for and shape the future for our youngest community members – consider bringing in a dish tomorrow. Or, reach out to a teacher and thank them directly. Share a story of how a teacher positively impacted your life. Maybe you were a teacher? What’s a cherished memory from time with your students?”
