Fast Fact: A National Education Association poll shows that the gift almost half of teachers would most like to receive is a simple “thank you.”
Fast! Act!: Thank a teacher by participating in The Nation’s Largest Teacher Thank-You Card project, sponsored by the National Education Association and the Parent Teacher Association. Visit www.teacherthankyoucard.org to send a free e-card or post a video thank you, or, better yet, mail a handmade card which will be included in a larger-than-life mural to be unveiled in May 2009.
