I loved all my teachers, even the ones I had conflicts with - they were the ones who taught me the most oftentimes.

It takes a special person to teach.

we know how much she does for the kids on her own dime.

Also, one of our neighbors is a teacher and if it weren't for the fact that her husband makes a good living she would be in debt and not living in the house she has now.

Bravo for your daughter, she will be a hero to many young people.

She starts first grade tomorrow. Mon-Weds distance/virtual or whatever they're calling it, and Thu/Fri in the class room.
