Silver Rail students prepare handmade gifts for teachers ahead of return
BEND, Ore. (KTVZ) — Students at Silver Rail are preparing to return to school with handmade gifts following a “Flowers for Your Teachers” event. The gathering was hosted by the Silver Rail Children’s Fund and Flowers by Eryn.
The event allowed children to pick flowers, draw artwork and write notes for their teachers. Event organizers created the gathering as a fun space for kids to make gifts before heading back to the classroom.
Plante Coffee Bar and The Wandering Ranchero food truck were open for attending families. Counselors from Deschutes Health were also present at the event to support students and their families.
Eryn Johnson, owner of Flowers by Eryn, expressed appreciation for being able to host the gathering.
“It just feels like such a privilege. I mean, to see all these kids here having a spot to come and get to be creative and gather and make something for their teachers before they go back to school is really just feels like a privilege to get to be a part of this today,” Johnson said.
