As educators we are in positions to hone consciousness, create empathy, impart values, teach basic life skills, and teach the basic academics needed to function as adults in society. I believe we are in fact the ones who co-parent along with the millions of parents who trust us enough to send their children to public schools. We make a difference everyday in the lives of each of our students. In the teaching profession, you must do everything from your heart.
