First Responder Appreciation Week





Governor Scott has declared Jan. 5 -9 Florida First Responder Appreciation Week. In an effort to help students across the state express their gratitude to these brave men and women, Commissioner Stewart is requesting teachers incorporate appreciation projects into their lessons. Activities may include, but are not limited to, creating:

·         cards or letters of appreciation;
·         poems or songs;
·         individual drawing, perhaps an illustration depicting how a first responder has helped a student;
·         class posters to hang in hallways; and
·         art projects that can be given to first responders.

The FLDOE would like to share examples of various activities. Please send pictures and/or samples to dcpsnews@duvalschools.org with the name of the school and project title.
