Ways for\u00a0EMID Families to “Support our Staff”<\/p>\n

Treats for staff!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Get more information here on how to\u00a0bring treats to Harambee<\/a> (Friday mornings) or Crosswinds<\/a> (Wednesday mornings).\u00a0\u00a0These links lead to schedules so you can sign up on your\u00a0own\u00a0or with another family!\u00a0 You’ll need to create an account with FoodTidings (free).<\/p>\n

Cards or letters<\/strong><\/p>\n

Teachers and staff\u00a0can never get enough cards or letters telling them how important they are!\u00a0 Send one with your student directly to his\/her teacher.\u00a0\u00a0Find email addresses for teachers\/staff on the EMID staff directory<\/a> and send them a direct message.<\/p>\n

You can also consider sending your thank you in the form of a Letter to the Editor.\u00a0 Here’s information on how to submit a letter to the St. Paul Pioneer Press<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Starting 10\/5\/11 at\u00a0Harambee, write a message on the wall in the\u00a0lobby (see photo below)<\/p>\n

Newsletter<\/strong><\/p>\n

EMID-SOS sent this “Newsletter<\/a>” to all staff at Harambee and Crosswinds in early October to keep them informed of our progress and help them know they are not alone!<\/p>\n

On October 24th we sent them this follow-up “special edition<\/a>” newsletter for fun and celebration of the board decision.<\/p>\n

Ideas!<\/strong><\/p>\n
