This is a time when families are making tough decisions around schooling for their children. This is a time when educators, administrators, teachers, counselors, nurses are making difficult decisions, delivering often unpopular messages and doing the hard work of teaching our kids in new ways. This is a time for understanding. This is a time for remembering that teacher(s) that made a difference for you and saying thank you. At least it is for me. So tune in and listen to this first episode of a series dedicated to every teacher, administrator, coach, nurse, counselor, and every other educator making a difference...now and for forever.
