Teachers are the heart of every school. Ask any adult about their favorite teacher, and they'll likely share a story that’s shaped their life. During Teacher Appreciation Week, we celebrate the incredible work teachers do both inside and outside the classroom. Beyond lesson planning, teaching, and grading, they serve as mentors, coaches, role models, and often become some of their students' biggest supporters. The impact they make can resonate for years to come. This week, take a moment to thank an Elsberry teacher for the positive difference they've made in your life, your child's, or your family's. #ESDThanksTeachers
