Loving teachers back: ways to show your gratitude

Fred Rogers once remarked that “Anyone who does anything to help a child is a hero to me” – and who is more worthy of such a designation than teachers? They pour their hearts into every student, identifying and growing individual potential, and inspiring future generations. Now, as the school year draws to an end, we’ve identified three ways to show your teachers how much they mean to you. And if you live in a Lennar Broward community – including Magnolia Trails, Horizon at Celebration Pointe, or Cascata at MiraLago – you’ll have everything you need for these special gestures.

A wonderful way to express your gratitude is by making a homemade gift, such as a video of the kids thanking their teacher and discussing treasured classroom memories. Magnolia Trails, a charming townhome community in Davie, offers beautiful backdrops among the open green spaces and along the sparkling lake. Once the beautiful moments are captured, return to your Wi-Fi CERTIFIED™ home and enjoy enhanced connectivity as you put the finishing touches on your video.  

For teachers who have a bit of a sweet tooth, consider baking a delicious treat. Certainly, your designer kitchen – complete with ample countertops, stainless steel appliances, and cabinets in your choice of stylish colors – will inspire you to try that new brownie recipe the entire class is sure to enjoy.

Another way to show teachers your love is to buy a gift. Teachers spend a good deal of their personal income on school supplies to ensure their students have the tools they need to succeed. So, what better way to show your support than by giving them a hand? Horizon at Celebration Pointe, a stunning collection of townhomes in Margate, is just minutes away from Target, a teacher’s candy store carrying everything from classroom items to clothes and accessories. A gift card to a big-box store of this type gives teachers the flexibility to pick and choose what they most need.

That being said, your teachers will certainly appreciate any present given from the heart. Perhaps, you want to frame a classroom photograph or purchase a personalized teacher award. Whatever you choose, let the children wrap it! The floorplans at Horizon at Celebration Pointe include expansive open spaces where the kids can spread out and have fun putting their personal stamps on these gifts.  

Lastly, you may want to host an end-of-school-year party for a beautiful farewell. Cascata at MiraLago, a lakefront community of estate homes in Parkland, offers a grand clubhouse, which includes an elegant ballroom with caterer’s kitchen. Invite the entire class to this magnificent venue and plan an unforgettable experience for your favorite teachers. Beyond enjoying finger foods and refreshments, your party will feel like a mini vacation at this coveted community.

While the adults take a dip in the resort-style pool or converse under the covered terrace, the children can have fun in the exciting water park.  For other enjoyable activities, there are tennis and basketball courts, as well as a billiard’s room. A get-together at Cascata is sure to make your teachers feel special, reciprocating some of the caring they so freely give our kids.

There’s no better time than now to celebrate these unsung heroes. Whether you decide to make something, buy a gift, or throw a party, we think you’ll find that living in one of Lennar’s Broward communities – with versatile home designs, desirable locations, and enjoyable amenities – will impart all the inspiration you need to demonstrate your gratitude.
