My Students, My Kids

If I had to do my life all over again, I’d still choose to be a teacher and a school administrator. In fact, if you and I have visited much at all, you probably have heard more than a few of my old school stories. I do tend to go on and on once I get started and may have seen a few of my comrades figuratively roll their eyes when I launched into one of my favorites! While not the most lucrative financial career, education brought me something far more valuable — my students; and although those kiddos are all grown up now, they are still my ‘kids’ and will always be so.
