There is no profession more important than teaching. The education, guidance, and nurturing of our children is the development of our future. It is during this time that I invite every family, parent, child, and business person to do something special for a teacher or group of teachers. It is true that all of us need to be affirmed for the job we do. As a former classroom teacher, I remember that the cards, notes, letters, gifts, and personal touches that came from parents, community, and students meant so much to me.
Teaching can be an isolated profession.
It can be very consuming of time and energy. Through this, most teachers teach because they believe in the power of education and because they love children. Behind every great man or woman is a series of teachers that have left indelible marks on minds and souls. Teachers and the important work you do. So I will read and read until I get better at reading.
