BREVARD COUNTY, FLORIDA – Brevard Public Schools Superintendent Dr. Desmond Blackburn kicked off “Teacher Appreciation Week,”  thanking  BPS teachers for all that they do.

Teacher Appreciation Week began Monday and runs through Friday, May 12 and features the theme “Teachers Deliver” –and they do!

“Teachers deliver so much to our students—inspiration, motivation and, ultimately, their futures,” said Dr. Blackburn.

“From May 8-12, 2017, we would like to celebrate teachers and deliver our thanks and gratitude to them. Teachers change the lives of millions of children every day, and their work and impact extends far beyond the boundaries of the classroom. Join us during PTA Teacher Appreciation Week to #ThankATeacher for all that they deliver to our nation’s children.”
