Last week, we saw each of our graduating seniors walk across the Denver Coliseum stage and announce where they’d be attending college next year. Thrilling moments of accomplishment like these would be impossible without our amazing teachers and staff. Each day, you dedicate yourselves to helping our students become the best versions of themselves. That’s why we’re excited to provide extra special recognition during Teacher Appreciation Week!

Each school in the network throughout the week of May 6-10 will be honoring all of the hard work our teachers do and celebrating the ways they inspire our students. You will find catered lunches on each of your campuses this week, and other small tokens of appreciation for the difference you make in the lives of our students every day.

We have also done some extra legwork to find the best deals and special offers created just for educators. You will find them listed below!
