National Teacher Appreciation Week is May 6-10, and we make it incredibly easy to give your school a week of laughs and appreciation.
Brand new for 2024, The Amazing Race has blown away our test schools and is already being called the ultimate appreciation week.
Imagine the excitement of The Amazing Race right within your school, with each clue adding more and more laughter, treats, and surprises to your hallways. Staff can “race” with a partner, by themselves, or simply participate as much as they want, collecting treats along the way.
Everything is organized and laid out to keep it super simple for administrators, PTO, or race organizers.

Everything kicks off with your announcement email the Friday before, laying out the rules and setting the stage. The game then runs in the background of your week, never interfering with teaching or learning.
The week features a pop-up hydration station with smoothies and mocktails, hidden agents waiting to hear the phrase, “The owls are not what they seem”, a Four Season rest station, a clue leading to a room filled with appreciation notes from students, and much, much more!
The concept is to give them the best appreciation week they’ve ever had. Each day is a new section of the “race course” and highlights a different group impacted by the teachers and staff: Admin, Parents, Community, and Students.
But it’s not just about the journey, it’s about what happens along the way! You get to choose from as many hilarious mini-games and detours you like to make your race wild. Detour options include:
Cafeteria Carpool Karaoke
Slug-bug/Punch-buggy hidden all over the school!
Rest time at the “Four Seasons” spa
Oreo “Car Snacking” challenge
Whipped cream timed toss challenge
“Did I hear Beyonce just tell me to look for a clue in the box to the left??”
The week then culminates with a huge celebration on Friday with prizes, a big raffle, and the shared journal where everyone can see the pictures and hilarity from the week.
We set out to make this not just the best, but the EASIEST appreciation week you will ever hold. Your entire appreciation week is setup for you from start to finish, including pre-written emails, posters, treat guide, daily script… EVERYTHING you need to give your teachers and staff an incredible week.
The packet takes about 30 minutes to initially read through and plan, then guides you to put one person in charge of each day of the race.

“You were so right! I was worried that they might see this as something more on their plates, but boy was I wrong. The opening emails instantly grabbed their attention and let them know how this was the exact opposite. It was exactly the fun and break we needed.” -Gina Richard
