I came across a good video that articulates "what teachers make" pretty well -->
Also, check out "Teaching Myths Debunked" on EdWeek - it also "clarifies" the teaching profession.
With a lot of negative press in the news about the teacher strike in Chicago recently, it's important to keep in mind that there are many teachers who don't fall into those stereotypes, etc.
Our kids need great teachers - we can't settle for less.
"I have no idea where I am going; I do not see the road ahead of me. I cannot know for certain where it will end. Nor do I really know myself...But I believe that the desire to please you does in fact please you. And I hope that I have that desire in all that I am doing. And I know that if I do this, you will lead me by the right road though I may know nothing about it. Therefore will I trust you always..." -Thomas Merton
I have come to fall in love with teaching in Catholic schools. What are YOU in love with?...
i've heard and read this before- but i really like it with the word art
