Staff Appreciation Evening at Bnos Chomesh Academy

Look How Crown Heights Appreciates Teachers!

At this point, parents all around the world are beginning to appreciate the incredible work that their children’s teachers do every day. But how do we show it?

Well, Crown Heights… you have outdone yourselves in the Hakaras Hatov department!

On Tuesday evening, Bnos Chomesh Academy held a Staff Appreciation Evening. Realizing that an online event needed to be something spectacular, a few staff members went to work gathering prizes for a virtual Chinese Auction/Raffle. But they never anticipated the enormity of the reaction of our local vendors.

This wonderful, generous community came up with 35 beautiful prizes for the BCA staff, from pizza and fries (Sauce and Cheese) to a beautiful stroller (Everything but the Baby).

“I’m so happy to be able to do something for teachers, I want to offer dinner for a teacher and her family!” gushed Mendy Wolf of JMenu.

“My manager isn’t here, but I want to sponsor a gift myself!” said Yossi at Chocolatte.

The BCA staff was surprised and touched to see the array of prizes offered to them by community members, including gifts sponsored by some of the school’s parents.

“It means so much to me to see what the people in the community think about Chinuch!” shared one of the teachers. “I’m honored to be part of this community,” said another.

The event included a fun game that involved some inspiration shared by staff members, a spinner, a lot of laughs, and everyone walking away with a nice gift.
