The teacher discount program at A.C. Moore has changed into a much better system over the years.

Instead of applying for their program, a teacher can simply show her valid school ID, a pay stub, home school certificate, or educator certificate or license to receive the discount.

Usually, the teacher discount is 15%.

However, during Teacher Appreciation Week, Sunday, April 4 – Saturday, April 10, 2014, teachers receive a 20% discount off sale and regular priced merchandise.

If your student has a project coming in the last few weeks of school or your teacher needs to replenish supplies before next year, then present this offer to your teacher along with an A.C. Moore gift card.

Most teachers love to shop for classroom supplies. Happy appreciating!

Happy Teacher Appreciation Week!

2014: Teacher Appreciation Week

Though the official Teacher Appreciation Day is Tuesday, May 6, 2014, many schools celebrate a Teacher Appreciation Week.

Having celebrated an early Teacher Appreciation Week earlier this year, we had a jump start.

Our school chose to honor our teachers during a week in March.

The school committee provided beverages, snacks, and goodies throughout the week to all faculty, staff, and administrators.

On Wednesday of that week, the teachers were treated to a luncheon while their classes were watched by room moms and parent volunteers.

During our Teacher Appreciation Week, we showered my son’s teacher with these tangible acts of gratitude:

2014: Teacher Appreciation WeekMonday: Homemade card written by Mr. 8

Tuesday: Fresh loaf of homemade sourdough bread

Wednesday: Package of our favorite homemade chocolate chip cookies

Thursday:  Potted plant with 3 tulips beginning to bud

Friday: Container of our homemade chocolate-covered peanut butter crackers

In addition to these gifts, I wrote her a thank you note, watched her class during lunch and recess at the beginning of the fourth quarter, and I directed the third grade history fair program.

If you have the gift of time, then many teachers would love the extra help. From making copies to organizing a field trip, teachers have much to do and help is usually appreciated.

Other options for teacher gifts include preparing a meal, purchasing a gift card, organizing a group gift, providing an after-school snack, ordering a special book for her or her classroom, bringing supplies for a classroom project, or presenting a personal gift that your child’s teacher collects.

If you are blessed with a wonderful teacher, then please embrace and encourage her. Teachers have a difficult job motivating their students, partnering with parents, and working with their supervisors.

With the official Teacher Appreciation Day on Tuesday, May 6, celebrate the great teachers who are molding and shaping your student this school year. Happy Teacher Appreciation Week!
