“Being an educator requires more than knowing the content you are to teach. You need a heart for people and a love of kids.”
Every decision made for schools should be anchored in the question; “What is best for the students we serve?”
“If this job were easy, more people would do it. But it is not. It is something you must work at daily because the lives of the young people you serve are depending on you. Literally!”
