The office of the public teacher is an unenviable and thankless one.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
A teacher is a person who never says anything once.
It's the teacher that makes the difference, not the classroom.
I cannot emphasize enough the importance of a good teacher.
Often times the public school teachers are ridiculed or they are made to feel inferior but this is really undeserved.
And then the conditions of safety - or lack of safety - for teachers in public schools, and the disparity between public schools and private schools is shameful.
What office is there which involves more responsibility, which requires more qualifications, and which ought, therefore, to be more honorable, than that of teaching?
Feeling pummeled by the outside pounding of tests and standards, a teacher can easily hide and simply turn to the immediacy of the classroom. It is not surprising that many teachers burrow in their rooms with all that they know about their students. There is no place to take the information.
Teachers do the noble work of educating our children. And we can't thank them enough for the hard work they put in every day to ensure a bright future for all of us.
I was ridiculed in public school for being smart. A teacher's pet.
Teachers are our greatest public servants; they spend their lives educating our young people and shaping our Nation for tomorrow.
