I like a teacher who gives you something to take home to think about besides homework.
There are many important responsibilities that school board members undertake. But few are as important as expressing great appreciation to the wonderful teachers, administrators and auxiliary staff who nurture our children with the love of learning. Day after day, these professionals transfer knowledge and multiple skills to help us teach our kids how to succeed in life. The best teachers are remembered for life as those who gave us direction, or sparked an interest or encouraged us to try again.
On this staff appreciation week at my alma mater, JPPS-Bialik, I salute the many educators who make a difference in my children’s life.
