Celebrating Teachers

05/07/2020

The influence of teachers extends beyond the classroom, well into the future.

National Teacher Appreciation Week takes place in the United States every year during the first full week in May. The Art of Leadership book, Leading Early Childhood Organizations, makes the point that effective leaders do a lot of celebrating. (This year in particular might be an especially important time to celebrate teachers!)

Here’s a quote from the book:

“Heart-centered leaders are great celebrators. They rejoice in effort as much as achievement. They notice courage, kindness, commitment and celebrate those qualities often and exuberantly…

Work is done with a sense of purpose and dedication to something that transcends each individual. The satisfying feeling of contributing to the greater good flourishes. Now that is something truly worth celebrating!”
