In addition to teaching, educators play a number of vital roles in students’ lives.
They serve as listeners and leaders, counselors and coaches, disciplinarians and disruptors, mediators and motivators, surrogates and soldiers, entertainers and energizers, and advocates and allies. In a typical day of switching among the ever-evolving list of roles, it is typical for educators to experience stress, burnout, guilt, and deviation from their ultimate purpose.
We hope this curation of quotes from the most compelling teachers and educational leaders in the field can serve as a source of inspiration for educators who need an extra boost at the beginning of each day, and a reminder of the reasons why they stepped bravely into the complex, critical role of guiding children from potential to possibility.

A simple and fun reminder (to myself, mostly) that wise words can change a whole day! Incorporating simple and wise quotes into my PowerPoints and lesson resources will be a warm and welcome addition
