At the graduation ceremony, we listened to a speaker who addressed us about the great teachers he had and the people that believed in him and encouraged him. I was impressed with his story of being a Spanish kid, growing up in Franklin, Idaho, and attending the Preston School District. He is now a prominent Judge. He gave a lot of credit to the teachers in his life who believed in him and gave him opportunities to grow and achieve. What a blessing!
We all have people like these in our lives, and our children have also been recipients of these same blessings! Great teachers are all around and they never get the credit that they deserve. I would like to thank all of my past teachers, those who are still teaching me, those who teach our children and believe in what they can become. YOU ARE PRICELESS!
TEACHER APPRECIATION DAY IS THIS COMING TUESDAY, MAY 7TH. Don't miss your chance to express your gratitude. I also ran across THIS blog that has several fun ideas, or just a simple note goes a long way to show your appreciation. I plan to help my kids remember this day and to also take the chance more often throughout the year to just say THANK YOU!
