Teacher appreciation week hit home for Pittsburgh as actress Kristin Bell recognized two Pittsburgh Public Schools teachers in her “Featured Teacher” series on Instagram.

According to Bell, Jess and Holly are kindergarten teachers who struggle for resources.

The teachers received copies of Dr. Seuss' "Oh, The Places You'll Go."

Bell asked the teachers to have students write a note to their future selves in the books so the teachers can send them the books after they graduate high school.
