For some 20 years Acton has hosted an annual “tea” to show its appreciation to current and retired teachers, staff and now mentors at Sand Hill-Venable Elementary. A simple way to say thank you, each May, we provide a time of socialization with punch and finger foods for those who work so tirelessly to make a better future possible for our community’s children. It has become a highlight of the end-of-year activities for the staff, teachers, and mentors at Sand Hill-Venable Elementary.
