The CNMI Public School System is celebrating Teacher Appreciation Week from May 4 to May 8.
The occasion is intended to honor teachers, teacher aides, and instructors for their untiring support and commitment in providing quality education under the CNMI PSS Students First initiatives.
“The perseverance and passion of our teachers in providing effective instruction, and collaborating with parents and our community members have impacted student learning. Our teachers’ role in creating a nurturing learning environment and maximizing our children’s potential shows that PSS continues to progress in its student achievement and the development of the whole child,” said PSS in a statement issued yesterday.
CNMI schools and programs will be honoring and recognizing the teachers’ hard work and dedication this week. Each day of the week, teachers will be receiving gifts and treats such as a fruit, card, flower, lei, mwar, and school supplies.
The CNMI Public School System teachers, teacher aides, and instructors strive for excellence and hold high standards on their students’ academics and achievements. According to Rota High School principal Sharlene Manglona, “teachers spend endless and countless times with their students to see them succeed.” Another principal, Rizalina Purugganan of Koblerville Elementary School, said that “teachers are the heart, mind, and soul of the school.”
