"Teacher Day is a remarkable occasion for all of us to show our teacher appreciation, whether we are students or we wish to compliment a former teacher, or our kids’ teachers."

These days it seems teachers are under fire everywhere and by everyone. It would be nice if someone would just stop and say "thank you" to a teacher. We all work hard, facing huge challenges everyday. A thank you would go a long way.
