If I had to some up my thought of the day in a sentence, it would be this. Teachers do so much more than just teach. Of course teachers teach their classes, but that is just the tip of the iceberg, especially when it comes to middle and lower school teachers. When assigned carpool duty, I did my best to entertain the kids until their parents arrived. Magic tricks, high five games, show and tell: I was pulling out all the stops. For myself and the teachers, you are just as much a role model and source of entertainment and even some what a parent just as you are a traditional school teacher. Realizing this, teachers not only do so much more than just teach, but they actively enrich and enlighten every single day for students and faculty a like. Whether it be snacks and traditions in the teachers lounge that I have seen, or cooperation and a willingness to always do what you can, how you can, and when you can to aid other faculty members, teachers do so so so so much amazing work both in and outside of the classroom.
