While campaigning, I got to know many high-school teachers, and let me say that the good ones are the unsung heroes of our society, and the bad ones are the gravediggers.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Teachers are our greatest public servants; they spend their lives educating our young people and shaping our Nation for tomorrow.
If you have to put someone on a pedestal, put teachers. They are society's heroes.
I'm convinced many of America's heroes are public school teachers and administrators. Many of these people do what they do because of their faith.
Teachers are expendable, overworked, underpaid, and many times disrespected by students, parents and higher-ups. Nonetheless, these teachers still show up because there are some who are teachers indeed.
We have found that the most successful teachers in low-income communities operate like successful leaders. They establish a vision of where their students will be performing at the end of the year that many believe to be unrealistic.
I think the real heroic teachers are the ones who work with kids, like my mom and my sister do.
Great teachers should be rewarded.
Well, teachers have been profoundly demoralized in recent years and are often treated with contempt by politicians. There's a great deal of reckless rhetoric in Washington about the mediocrity of the teaching profession - and I don't find that to be true at all.
Teachers are unparalleled in the role they play in children's lives.
I had many good teachers, but only three of them were school teachers.
