Written by: Josh Griffin, Principal The D’Evelyn Founding Document states, “Teachers have the power to inspire interest in learning or to cause the student to react with indifference to the subject being taught.” This important quote of the Document emphasizes the importance of high quality teachers, dedicated to the learning and development of their students, with great knowledge of and passion for their subject. We are fortunate in our D’Evelyn faculty to have an amazing group of dedicated teachers serving our students each day. The week of May 4 is National Teacher Appreciation Week. Customarily, parent groups, school administration and staff organize events throughout Teacher Appreciation Week to honor and recognize D’Evelyn teachers. With the limitations and challenges associated with social distancing, this year we are committed to virtual recognitions of our outstanding teachers. I ask you and your family to consider joining us in an effort to recognize and thank teachers for their efforts this year, particularly in the face of the challenges associated with the seismic shift from in-person to remote learning. I am grateful to our teachers for their efforts to make this new learning model work, and am honored to count each of them as my D’Evelyn colleagues. As you are able, I request that D’Evelyn community members - staff, administration, students, parents, graduates, and family members - take a few minutes during the week of May 4th to contact members of the D’Evelyn faculty to thank them for their dedicated service. Let’s work together to ensure teachers are honored for their commitment to our children. For a full list of faculty/staff contact information, please visit this webpage. Thank you for your ongoing support during the 2019-2020 school year. I am so thankful for the efforts of our students, teachers, staff, and families as we navigate this unique conclusion to the school year. I hope that you and your family are safe and healthy!
