Our “Apple for the Teacher Tree” open house with the Chamber of Commerce was a great way to celebrate National Education Week at Kump Education Center.

We are ready to begin celebrating our new “Apple for the Teacher Tree” project to honor beloved schoolteachers at Kump Education Center.
This idea has been developing for several years, but now the tree is really on the wall in our learning lab thanks to Susan Ellison.
After Susan’s mother died, she told me about her mother’s passion for teaching, and I shared the idea that we could have a teacher memory tree at KEC. Then Susan decided to make it happen. By teaching a computer coding class at KEC she earned initial funding to pay for the tree. Next she discovered Randall Arbogast who designed and cut out the wooden tree and 25 red apples.
