It’s Teacher Appreciation Week! We celebrate teachers every day but especially during this special week. We’ve been posting our favorite quotes about teaching on Facebook this week. We also have curated some creative ideas to help you honor your children’s teachers on Pinterest. Join us and participate in the #ThankATeacher campaign on Twitter. We hope you are inspired to take a moment to remember a teacher that was special to you along the way!
Here’s a blog post about one of my many favorite teachers written by a fellow student:
Sister Mary Albertine was patient, too. She never rushed us. She would do every homework program on the blackboard if we needed her to, until she was sure we understood. I never took another day of math after I left Knoxville Catholic High School. But I can still help my kids with Algebra, because Sister was so thorough.
Finally, Sister almost always wore a smile, in the classroom and out. That’s something that hasn’t changed.
