St. Peter Claver Regional Catholic School received a major surprise May 7 as part of national Teacher Appreciation Week
In celebration of Teacher Appreciation Week (May 3-9), Target store teams in select U.S. cities chose to support a local school of their choice.
In Metro Atlanta, educators at St. Peter Claver Regional Catholic School received a major surprise on May 7 as team members from the nearby Piedmont Road Target store arrived with $3,000 worth of classroom essentials and teacher "must haves."
The Atlanta Target team personally shopped their own store aisles to curate an appreciation package specifically for St. Peter educators. The donation included everything from coffee machines for the teachers to books, art supplies, and snacks for their classrooms. The donations were all intended to recognize the impact the work teachers do for their students.
