Students need to start their own personal
library at a young age. Every time my second-
graders leave our library with their selection
of books they can't wait to read them!

You know why we love teaching? It's the
students we inspire. We may never hear what
becomes of them beyond our classroom,
but when we do, we are proud. Thanks to
my students who are now doctors, nurses,
architects, officers, accountants, and —
closest to my heart — teachers!

crossed my path, past and present — you are
why I am here today!

Attacking the motives of @CATeachersAssoc
because they are a union is probably the
worst tactic to choose to persuade me.

Impressed by the dedication of my
@CATeachersAssoc colleagues who go the
extra miles — literally — for students and
their families!
