“I wish people would see them as the little people that they are.” — Courtney Wallace

Middle school … it can be an awkward phase of life. 

Underneath it all, middle schoolers are a great group of students.  

Maybe you are a middle school educator navigating through these emotions, quirks, and awkwardness.  

In this episode of the Teacher Edition Podcast, Jenny welcomes Courtney Wallace, a passionate middle school educator who sees her role inside the classroom as a mission field.

Even amidst the drama and unpredictability middle schoolers are facing, they are in the most formative years of their lives. Our role as educators is to walk alongside them as they discover who they are — helping shape their biblical worldview, supporting their growth, and pointing them to something bigger than themselves. 

Every day in the classroom is YOUR day to impact and inspire through God's power and grace working in you. 

Go do what God has called you to do!
