On Saturday, May 1, 2021, LexYouth successfully held the first youth-teacher appreciation event in Lexington Hastings Park. Many youth teachers, students and their parents, as well as the staff of LexYouth and CALex participated in this activity.
During the event, LexYouth staff gave prepared gifts to the LexYouth teachers, to express appreciation and encouragement for LexYouth teachers who use their spare time to give back to the community through tutoring. The students’ families were also invited to participate in the event to express their appreciations to the teachers for their hard work with thank you cards and small gifts.
Through this activity, many youth teachers meet for the first time, get to know each other, and become friends through face-to-face communication. The teachers also enjoyed playing volleyball and other outdoor activities in the lovely weather. In addition, LexYouth Staff, teachers, students, and parents also had a good opportunity to discuss the program. Teachers shared their opinions and suggestions. Teacher leadership team discussed how to enhance the program with training programs and social activities among teachers and students. A shared understanding among all is that the LexYouth program needs to be diversified and should strive to serve the needs of more underserved student communities.
No regrets if you missed this event. LexYouth plans to provide more training and social activities for LexYouth teachers. We look forward to your participation next time!
