Teachers, what do you enjoy about your job?

I learn so much from them, and am grateful for the opportunity to play some part in their development as people and as students. I also love reading and talking about books. And, like all English teachers, I'm a grammar freak, so that's also very fun for me. Additionally, I appreciate the opportunity to work in a school that encourages teachers to be creative and innovative. Oh, and my colleagues are fun and smart. I practiced law for 5 years before taking time off to SAHM, then went back to grad school to become a teacher. Love it.

Katie? We love you too. If not Katie, consider this a shout-out of appreciation for all that you do!

The kids. I also love teaching, but only if I can be allowed to teach.

I say this to my mom every time she asks how the school year is going. "I just want to teach!"
