Teachers in our society are greatly undervalued. Our parents or guardians do make an impact on our learning and our knowledge, but our teachers are the ones who mold and shape the intelligence we have and make it greater. I could never thank every teacher I've had over the past 14 years enough for what they've done for me and how they've all shaped my mind in some way for the better.

Through pre-school, kindergarten, elementary school, middle school, and high school, I was exposed to an array of over 50 teachers in 7 different buildings and locations within the same ten mile radius of each other. I was part of two school districts, and I learned so much each year I went through school.

Every teacher I've ever had supplied me with new knowledge, a different outlook on life, and provided me with new skills as I moved on in my education. I was lucky enough to have amazing teachers throughout my education, and I'm sure the amazing influx of teachers will never end as I continue my education.

This thank you is just a small way to show appreciation for the wonderful adults that pushed me to be where I am today. I wouldn't be the same student or person without all of these teachers in my life.

First of all, thank you for educating me. Thank you for giving me the knowledge to advance myself to a college education. You have shaped my mind in a way that I was able to become part of honors and advance my mind in ways I never could have imagined. I believe I was put in the best schools, where I received the best education I could have ever received.

Thank you for always believing in me and giving me the support I needed to thrive. Students are not much without the support of their teachers, and I was lucky enough to had teachers that cared a lot about my education and my success.

Thank you for spending countless hours outside of school grading papers, writing letters of recommendation, making lesson plans, and continuing your education just to better your students. Being a teacher is so much more than spending 8 hours at school. Your work does not end when you leave the school, it only continues for hours, and I am grateful for all the extra work you do.

I could never be thankful enough for the great teachers I've had in my life. Our teachers are so under appreciated and under valued, even though they are the educators for every occupation.

I know you may not hear it enough, so here is a thank you from every student you've ever had. This thank you is for all the hard work and dedication you put into your job each and every day.
