New Teacher Breakfast

Our New Teacher Breakfast is a very special annual event where we welcome new teachers and staff to USD #373 on behalf of the Chamber! New Teachers and staff receive a delicious meal, a chance to connect with Chamber members, and some fun, local goodie bags as a gift of welcome. The breakfast takes place in the beginning of August. 

There are many ways for our Chamber members to get involved with this event to help welcome new teachers and staff on behalf of our business community:

1. Donate items for new teacher goodie bags! We try to pack tote bags full for our new teachers with goodies that include snacks, supplies for school, tumblers, coupons, etc. that can give them some exposure to the businesses we have here locally. If you would like to make a donation to the bags, let us know!
2. Volunteer for the event! Our business volunteers play a crucial part in our New Teacher breakfast! Business volunteers are paired with new teacher or staff member to welcome them and introduce them during the program.
3. Sponsor the event! You can sponsor this event at the following levels:

• Gold-Star Sponsor – $500:
