A Teacher

"Do you ever take a weekend off?" nope, I'm a teacher leader and like all educator leaders the job doesn't include "summers" or "weekends". Today was another great day working with amazing teacher leaders from the state of Montana! The group I was with today not only gave up a Saturday but have chosen to take part in an intense curriculum, hours of webinars and the grueling efforts of creating and implementing a capstone project to lead the education profession forward. I'm not a great writer but I am so inspired by the amazing teachers I got to spend the day with. Find out more about TLI at teacherleadershipinitiative.org. What was the best part of a Saturday of work? Amazing colleagues that use their hearts, minds and teamwork to inspire each other to move our nation forward. Thank you colleagues!
