Student Appreciation Day

One great way to add value in your business is to hold a student appreciation day... and summer is a great time to do it!  Doing something nice to show you appreciate your students and their parents doesn't have to cost a fortune, either.  Throw a party and have some fun!  Your students will love you for it!!

Here are few low cost ideas to get get your started:

-Reserve a pavilion at a local park and barbecue hot dogs.  You can get everything you need at a local wharehouse store like Costco:  Hot dogs, buns, ketchup, chips, drinks, popscicles, etc. 

-Play water games at a local park and serve popscicles or cold lemonade.

-Hire a face painter or princess charachter to attend the event.

-Check your local theater on pricing to rent out the theater.  Sometimes they offer discounts if you bring your own movie!!

Whatever you choose to do, make yourself available to your students and families.  Mingle with them.  Thank them for a great year.  Show them that you care.  I can't tell you how many families would say, ' I can't believe you actually feed everyone!  Thanks for doing this!"

Your students will appreciate the gesture, and loyalty will increase in your business.  A simple thank you goes a long way!
