Teachers have the opportunity to inspire and influence students in powerful ways.
Chances are you are thinking about becoming a teacher because of the impact one or more of your teachers has had on your life. It is also true that the welfare of our community and society is strongly affected by the quality of education our children receive. The value of a good teacher cannot be overestimated.
