During
the week of November 16-20, Olympia High School Student Council will be
acknowledging National Education Week by providing the high school teachers and
administration with goodies throughout the week.
Junior
Natalie Stone said, “We want to show how much we appreciate
them.”
This
week allows Americans to honor individuals who are making a difference and
helping every child receive a quality education. This year’s theme is “Great
Public Schools: A Basic Right and Our Responsibility”.
Each
day the Student Council will be providing a different treat for the teachers and
administrators including breakfast, lunch, snacks or gifts.
“We
use this week as a thank you. The teachers really love the food days and we make
the week more positive for them,” said Student Council Sponsor Brandi
Cooper.
Teacher
Rebecca Meissner said, “I’m wildly excited if I don’t have to pack a lunch. I
love free lunch!”
The
first observance of American Education Week occurred in 1921. It is always
celebrated the week before thanksgiving.
“The
teachers do so much for us, it’s nice for us to do something for them in
return,” said Junior Reagan Brown.
