I believe that I am one of those people who tries to acknowledge people every day! I get to work early to greet my staff before they start their day, I take time to tell someone how nice they look, that I've noticed their new hair style, or just simply thank them for working so hard day after day. I am in no way bragging about myself, only trying to treat people the way I would hope they would treat me.
Well, I guess one day last week was boss' day! Unfortunately, I am also known for forgetting most of these "special" event days and view every day as special. However, two of my staff members emailed the school administrators and arranged a special meeting for 7:30 in the morning. No one knew what this was about, only that it was important and we all needed to be there.
To our surprise the two staff members had prepared a beautiful breakfast for the school administrators in recognizing boss' day! I really appreciate this recognization and hope that we can all take something from this and as they say "play it forward".
Thanks,
Jeanette

Hello Jeanette,
As a high school student I think it's great when one of my teachers goes out of his/her way and recognizes me for something. Something good that is! I only wish it happened more often.
When you think of it, as students we spend more time with our teachers than we do our own families. It would certainly make it more fun to go to school is our teachers could recognize some of the good things we do.
I have a couple teachers who do this. I actually love being in their classes. I feel like I'm really a part of something and that's great.
Now I only wish there was a way to get more teachers to do this!
Thanks,
Jah
