  1. Amen, Tom…..Thanks for your salute to teachers…..much appreciated, I’m sure, by all!
    Wish all your former teachers could see this great pat on the back….they would beam with pride!

  2. Bravo! Teachers are our unsung heroes. I did not realize this until my children were in elementary school. I witnessed then the many hats teachers’ do wear. Your article has inspired me to contact my teachers and express my appreciation for all. Thank you. I am presently a substitute teacher. Working with students is priceless and inspiring!
