There is something deeply emotional about having someone you’ve respected and admired for years (a personal hero) recognizing and honouring the work you do, recognizing your work and what you’ve gone through the past year and a half.

Listening to @wick_22 speak and advocate for teachers and students during COVID makes my teacher heart full and happy.

Re: ATA News article “It’s not bullying; it’s courage” (June 15, 2021)
I just read Lindsay’s article mentioned above. Please pass on to Lindsay what a fantastic article that was and thanks for sharing it. People have no idea what teachers do and how much they care. I retired last year, and when I see the passion and energy and caring of the teachers of today, I am in awe.
Please thank them for sharing. (It’s not like they didn’t have something else they could be doing.)
Wow!
