Yesterday I referred to one of our Lower School science teachers in my theme entry. Today I want you to see how my school has honored her. Anyone, whether faculty or staff, who has been at Collegiate more than 30 years is given a plaque to be hung outside the room in which they work. This includes administrators, maintenance staff, and kitchen workers as well as teachers. In this age of job-switching and the quest for the newest, it is refreshing to see appreciation for experience. Teachers like Mrs. Stultz have a wealth of knowledge to share, but at the same time, they represent the model of the Life-Long Learner.
It really is a rare achievement, and it's nice to see that your school recognizes their dedication. And I think it's awesome that they do this not only for teachers but the rest of the staff that helps keep the school running smoothly.
How nice to be appreciated like that.
