PTO Staff Appreciation

Considering the TCGIS staff to be the heart of the school, the PTO is committed to supporting our staff as they go about the critical work of educating our kids.
 
With the help of the Elternkontakts (EKs) and parents/guardians, the PTO puts on a number of staff appreciation activities throughout the year, such as potlucks on Early Release days, monthly breakfast for Intern meetings, pizza on conference nights, and catered meals for the start/end of school and winter holiday break. In addition, the PTO plans a Staff Appreciation Week in May that includes a variety of events to show our appreciation -- ranging from gift cards to a yogurt bar and chair massages.
