Staff appreciation re-cap

Every month, the Staff Appreciation committee treats our Twain teachers and staff. The events range from fridge and pantry re-stocks in the staff lounge to our famous cookie exchange. The festivities culminate in a week long appreciation bonanza in May. Check in here for recaps of the events.

A big thank you to committee chairs Katti Swanson and Julie Arguez for spearheading these events for our students' fantastic teachers and staff.
