In my college years, I worked as a union labor organizer. I was just one of the many workers trying to do my part to help the community.

I come from a family of educators. My sister is a college teacher. My dad is a college teacher, but first a junior high teacher.

My mother was a teacher, my father was a community organizer. I come from a working class background.

I'm a teacher. My mother was a teacher. I spent 40 years as a teacher.

My mother was a teacher.

My mother and my father were teachers. My grandmother and my grandfather were teachers. This is something I really know about. Even when I was a kid, it was a profession my father couldn't stay in, because he couldn't make enough money.

My mom was a teacher - I have the greatest respect for the profession - we need great teachers - not poor or mediocre ones.

My grandmother was a teacher, my sister was a teacher, my daughter was a teacher and is now a superintendent in northern California, and my son-in-law is a high school principal. I am surrounded.

For a little while, my mom was a school teacher. And I went to the school that she taught.

I was a disadvantaged child from a non-educated family, yet I had the advantage of being in the company of great teachers.
