Posted: Monday, May 5, 2014Tell Students: Thank a Teacher
May 6 is National Teacher Day, part of a weeklong National Teacher Appreciation celebration of the many ways that teachers make schools and communities great.
Do you remember a teacher who opened your mind to new ideas? Recognized your potential and celebrated your dreams? Motivated, listened, supported, and cared? Helped you to discover, explore, build, and soar? Inspired your career? Changed your life?
Join us in thanking those teachers who make learning come alive!
To celebrate the Buffalo State Year of the Teacher and to recognize the impact that teachers have had on our community, every student, staff, and faculty member is invited to stop by the Campbell Student Union during Bengal Pause on Tuesday, May 6, to write a note of appreciation to a favorite teacher. Laptops and volunteers will be available to help search for current teacher addresses. All postcards will be stamped and mailed by the School of Education office of the dean.
Please join us in recognizing the efforts of educators across the nation and globe, and encourage students to stop by the Thank a Teacher table on May 6.
