School district 'shares the love'

In an effort to show recognition and appreciation to its employees, Crittenden County School District will celebrated its fifth annual Share the Love Day today.

Superintendent Dr. Rachel Yarbrough said the idea is to demonstrate appreciation to each employee for their hard work and dedication and to ask them to further communicate an attitude of gratitude by writing a note of appreciation to a colleague.

“Share the Love Day in the Crittenden County Schools started five years ago, and is held each Valentine's Day," Yarbrough said. "We give a small token of appreciation to each staff person and expect them to pay it forward with a note of gratitude to their colleagues.

"This notion of paying a positive comment forward creates an opportunity for members of each school and district employee team to get a kudo from a co-worker.  It’s a way to share our appreciation to members of our school team.”
