WIBCI we celebrated Teachers?
Are there better people….really?
I’ve spent the better portion of my life surrounded by teachers. Their livelihood, their fulfillment comes from helping others’ reach their potential. Is there a more selfless occupation? Summers off is not compensation for the aggravation, worry, frustration, and undervaluation.
WIBCI each year communities had a ‘Teachers’ Day’ where those that are teaching join those that have taught and walked in a parade? They could strut past the community/former students and be applauded for all they did for us. The parade could culminate at a picnic (what teacher doesn’t love a picnic?) where you could sit and tell them how they impacted your life, look at old class photos and leave them with letter that they will cherish forever. Imagine how good it would feel to make their lives knowingly appreciated and valued.
Mr. Wartman, wherever you are, you were the best. My classmates missed your dry humor, but it wasn’t wasted on me. Thank you for scaring me into LEARNING, the love of my life. Thanks for introducing us.
