Teachers' Wishes
You don't need a magic lamp to help make our teachers' wishes come true. The
answer may be in your closets, drawers, attic, basement or garage. Everyday
household items that our teachers can use in class projects turn up just about
anywhere! As we receive the Akron Public Schools teacher wishes for the
2008-09 school year, they will
be listed below, alphabetically by school and then by teacher
within the school. If you think you can help out a teacher or school, just drop
your items off at that school.
Wishes can come true, and you can help! Please, won't you
help make a teacher's wish come true? Wishes are updated at the
beginning of every school year.
