For the third instalment of our sometimes-series Ed Stories, we're taking the inspirational route. While we often tell stories to make each other laugh, we also have tales of everyday heroism. Those moments when we manage to break through and really empower our students and help them know they're special and loved. Our three storytellers this time around are Jen Cort, who tells the story of  coming from a marginalized community and how a teacher impacted her life; Sam Fecich, and the way that a special project helped to empower her students and their parents; and Tonya Gilchrist who reminds us to never underestimate the kind of life-long impact we can have on our kids.
