Hi! I'm Eric. My belief is that giving time is a foundation from which we can build a life that will bring a positive outlook, create opportunities, and let us lay our heads down every night with a feeling that "I made a difference".... All my posts are related to giving time, the nuances, and the stories of the people that are giving time and making a difference in our community.

Where Does A Teacher’s Influence Stop?

Rate: 1 Flag

“A teacher affects eternity; he can never tell where his influence stops.”

 – Henry Brooks Adams

Where does a teacher’s influence stop?

The classroom door? 

The school’s front door?

The end of the school year?

Graduation?

I don’t know where a teacher’s influence stops, but I would guess that as long as the student continues to think and act, the teacher is alive and well.

It’s Teacher Appreciation Week. If you’ve learned how to learn, thank a teacher.

Today’s gift of time … Changed the reader board at my daughter’s school.
