Yesterday
morning started on a high note with our annual Teacher Appreciation breakfast for faculty and staff. The hospitality committee did an outstanding job setting up and decorating for the event in the Dining Room, and gifting each teacher with their new themed Chets Creek t-shirts and gifts from Sally Foster. Hosting a breakfast as a way to say thank you to the staff is always so greatly 
appreciated. In addition, thanks to one of our faculty reps, Karen Morris, many of the teachers joined PTA at the breakfast and walked away with a I Joined PTA Today sticker to show their unwavering support. Thank you to each of you who made this tradition a grand performance!At the conclusion o
f the breakfast, volunteers gathered in the Dining Room to stuff over 1,300 Orientation Packets! They worked tirelessly, with a smile, creating stacks of packets, and waiting on the UPS man to deliver the folders the packets needed stuffed in. Thank you to each volunteer, adults and children alike, for taking on such a monumental task and easing the work burden for the office staff and teachers. Volunteers like this earn their place on their pedestals!Membership was hard at work, too. Organizing rosters and setting up for their annual Membership drive, and on Orientation Day collecting hundreds of membership en
velopes from our newest PTA members. We know, that with their hard work and dedication, this drive will yield 100% faculty and parent participation. In addition, PTA store was set up in the lobby selling items like t-shirts, license plates, and ribbons to enable people to show their support. And, the Chets Creek Rewards Program was announced and flyers displayed.Thank you to each of you who whistled in this tune, before the school year even began, to assist in creating this year's grand composition. You are the best and it wouldn't have happened without you.
A Great BIG Thank You to our fabulous PTA!
ReplyDeleteWe couldn't do what we do without your tremendous support. I am in awe of what you all do for teachers, students, parents and our community.
Thank you so much,

The PTA here is honestly AMAZING! Thank you so much for all of your hard work. It blows my mind away how much dedication you all have for Chets Creek. Every school in this world should be jealous we have you!
ReplyDeleteOne of my favorite things about going back to school, is the support I know I will get from the PTA. Thank you for the breakfast, t-shirt, and cute wrapping paper. Also your endless hours helping around the school. You help make our school one "Funky Town"
ReplyDeleteWe are so lucky to have such an organized, powerful force supporting us! You truly make our jobs easier! Thank you!!!!

Words just aren't enough to leave here for others to read. Our P.T.A. is such a grand support system for me personally I could just go on and on. One can get an idea if they had walked in on the breakfast they served us this week. Decorated with love and enthusiasm... lavishing us with gifts to kick off the year... they literally rock my world every year. They truly are the ultimate P.T.A.
ReplyDeleteMany thanks to our wonderful PTA! You all go above and beyond! I (and I know I can speak for the rest of the CCE family) truly appreciate your time and dedication to making our school the best! I look forward to another fantastic year. :)

I am not a Chets native, and I can assure you that there is no other place like Chets Creek Elementary and no other PTA like ours. We are so blessed to have your support in creating a flawless opening for our kids and to continue to help us carry on the traditions that provide such a unique experience for the students. You rock!
ReplyDeleteSimply put, there is no other group of PTA members anywhere on any planet that do so much to support the learning of children. It's like the Churchill speech, "Never have so few done so much for so many!".
ReplyDeleteIt's just a bonus that they are also fun to talk with, and they have really sweet kids :-} I wish I had more time just to hang out with these amzing folks.
Peace to you and yours,
T-Cubed
The pink t-shirts everywhere we turn certainly attest to how busy our awesome PTA members are. You can constantly find them all over the building, working hard at something. :-)
ReplyDeleteOn top of that, each one displays such warmth and friendliness, which to me is the most important part. Thank you to all of our supportive, hard-working, smiling, incredibly friendly PTA staff!! You truly are the best! We love you!
Our PTA is the best. We could not do it without them! :)
ReplyDeleteOur PTA is the BEST! Words can't express how much I appreciate all of the support you provide. Breakfast on Thursday was an appreciated treat on a very hectic day. I love my t-shirt, purple for Mardi Gras. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteSaying thanks just doesn't seem to be enough in order to express my appreciation for all the support received from our fabulous PTA, but it's a start. It is a genuine service given by volunteers putting in countless hours in order to help make this not just a school, but a family. The welcoming smiles truly are amazing and help bring harmony into our lives.
ReplyDeleteBravo! Bravo!

When I tell other music teachers across the district to "ask their PTA president" to consider helping, they look at me and scrunch up their face. I am so glad there is no face-scrunching going on at CCE! I love our PTA!! I love that you love me back!! Smiles everyone...the concert is about to begin....
ReplyDeleteBravo on your efforts on our behalf! This school would not be the same without you!!

ReplyDeleteWe are so lucky to have the best PTA! I can't wait to wear my new shirt on Monday! Thanks for all you guys do! :)
ReplyDeleteWe love our PTA, I don't know how you manage to do all that you do. We certainly appreciate all of you hard work. I hope that you realize that all of our students lives are enriched because of what you are willing to do for them. My life is also enriched by all that you do for me:)
ReplyDeleteThanks for everything,
J.J. Brown
Thanks so much for everything. Breakfast was so yummy! I love the shirts! And that's not all...I really appreciate all your countless hours and the way you pass that spirit of giving on to your children. Every time I felt the anxiety creeping in, one of you or your kids was there to lend a helping hand. Wow!
ReplyDeleteThank you, thank you, thank you X 1000!!! You all are so wonderful! Your gifts to us were so appreciated. There is no other like this fantastic group. Definitely second to none!
ReplyDeleteOur school at Chets would not be the same without our dedicated PTA volunteers who give so freely of themselves. We want you to know that we honor you, appreciate you, and are deeply grateful for all that you do for our teachers, staff and students. You are our "Giving Tree" who keeps on giving day after day with a bright and cheery smile and a positive attitude. Please know that you are needed, valued, and loved!! God has a special place in Heaven for caring people like you. Thank you so much for our t-shirts, the delicious breakfast, wrapping paper, and candy, but most of all, thank you for your time and love. I am excited to wear my new green t-shirt on Monday to welcome my students and again on Tuesday to wear it with them. Thank you for everything!
ReplyDeleteWith love,

Dear Fabulous P.T.A.,
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for all you do for our students, parents, and for the teachers of Chets Creek. I know we say "thank you," but you probably have no idea how valued you are. It is an honor to work at this school, and the P.T.A. is one of the driving forces behind the honor I feel.
Thank you,
Christy Constande
A million thank yous for all you do not only for the children, but for the faculty and staff as well. We are so blessed at Chets Creek!

Thank you so much CCE PTA! We are so spoiled by all of your efforts and our students benefit so much from your hard work! I am grateful to all of you!
ReplyDeleteWe are so blessed to have such a fabulous PTA! Thank you so much for all of your hard work and dedication that make Chet's Creek the BEST school at which to learn and work!
ReplyDeleteI watched as the PTA stayed late the night before Orientation to stuff all the Registration packets. You could hear a busy buzz and laughter coming from the Dining Room. They just get to work and enjoy the journey! When we had to decide who could take up all the money so that every child would have a Weekly Reader this year, it was the PTA that we depended on to do the work. When money has to be collected for Kindergarten field trip shirts, it'll be the PTA that we will ask. Any time we need extra help, PTA is ALWAYS there! We are the luckiest school in the world! Thank you PTA!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for your support! Your hard work is greatly appreciated!
ReplyDeleteThey say it takes a village. Well that is so true when it comes to the dedication and support from our P.T.A. Thank you for blessing us and all of the children at Chets. You truly complete us.

ReplyDeleteThank you for your tireless efforts, not only this year but in years past! Our PTA is one of a kind and I believe it is a HUGE part of why we are the school we are! :) You are amazing!!! We love you!

I think sometimes teachers aren't aware of ALL of the behind the scenes work that each member of PTA does. I cannot dream up a better team of individuals who selflessly give of themselves more than they even have to give in time, talent, and dedication. Thank you so much for all that you have done for us teachers and for each student. Thank you for the many, many, many other ways in which you will continue to serve and give of yourselves this year! You guys are the defintion of TEAMWORK! :) You make all of the cool, fun, exciting, and memorable event happen for students, teachers, and parents. THANK YOU!THANK YOU!THANK YOU!
ReplyDeletePTA you are Awesome! Thank you so much for the delicious breakfast and the bag of goodies!I appreciate all you do for us!
ReplyDeleteThank you all so much for all you do for our faculty and students. It takes time, love and attention to make possible the things you all do. It's appreciated more than you'll ever know!
