Teacher Appreciation Week is upon us and it’s National Teacher Day today! The National Education Association describes National Teacher Day as “a day for honoring teachers and recognizing the lasting contributions they make to our lives”. The role of a teacher is an important one in the lives of children today. They sometimes act as another set of parents that educate, guide, and enrich our children every day. Make sure to thank a teacher for all that they do to provide our children with the knowledge necessary to success in the future!
