On behalf of the IUSD Board of Education, Superintendent Cassie Parham and IUSD leadership, we thank and celebrate our IUSD teachers and certificated staff during National Teacher Appreciation Week! Thank you to all of our certificated educators for ensuring that our students can think critically, creatively, embrace challenges, and cultivate the skills and knowledge necessary for success in college, career, and life.
We know our teachers take on many roles, including that of mentor, and trusted and caring adult to meet the social, emotional and learning needs of our students. Without question, our teachers are at the heart of our district’s promise to provide the highest quality educational experience we can envision, and we thank them for their service to our students, families and community. They truly make a lasting difference in the lives of our students and families.
We also want to recognize the many certificated professionals who support our students in mission-critical ways, including School Nurses, Speech Pathologists, Teachers on Special Assignment, Education Specialists, and Counselors. Your work is essential to the development and well-being of our students. You provide critical academic support, respond to students’ mental and physical health needs, and ensure that every learner has access to the resources they need to thrive.
If you know a teacher or certificated staff member, we invite you to send them a thoughtful email or write a kind note to express your gratitude for our outstanding educators.
Join us in thanking our IUSD teachers and certificated staff!
