Thank you to the teachers who take the time out of their short classes to learn about each student. Whether it be their home life, extracurriculars, interests, career possibilities, hobbies or anything.

These teachers offer to stay after school to understand what might prohibit classroom performance. These are the teachers who see potential in each and every student, regardless of classroom performance. These teachers realize that everybody has the chance to be something in life, and it has to start with the right person. These teachers learn to see the best in each student, regardless of how they act. They can take a stone cold heart and open it up to be something much more caring and loving. They believe that even the shyest student can become something much more. Most of their assignments have no boundaries; they allow the most creative kids free realm to "think outside of the box."

The Arts are a huge part of many students lives, and you can find these teachers at musicals, dance recitals, piano recitals and more. These educators will change the way the next generation of students goes out into the world. The people of tomorrow start with teachers. These teachers understand that life happens, and sometimes students cannot turn their work in on time. Sometimes an extention is needed. When a student is not interested in the assignment, or doesn't participate in class, they pull them aside and find out why, instead of forcing them to work.

Thank you to these teachers, you are changing the next generation for the better. You are creating a group of young adults who can go out, take on the world, and make society a better place for anyone. Any idea is accepted, nothing is "not good enough" or "impossible." You create hope in students lives, often when they have none. Thank you for doing your job to the best of your ability. Thank you for all that you do.
