QUOTES from the Sandbox ~ Sunday, July 28, 2019

Hi Everyone!  I have chosen today to honor all Teachers wherever you
are with some meaningful quotes.  My daughter, Julie, has been one of those
dedicated Teachers for a number of years now at a Christian Kindergarten
through High School Academy here in the Orlando area.  For one year she
took the position of one of the three principals of the school, however, she
missed teaching and her working relationship with students and went back
to teaching.  Tomorrow Julie's summer vacation is over as she goes back
to the first day of a new school year.  Through the last few years at ActiveRain
I realize we have some members who were previously Teachers.  It is my
thanks to Julie, to all of you Teachers for your devoted and dedicated work.
God bless and keep all of you close. May he also reward you for all the years
you gave for the betterment and growth of humanity. You took on an awesome
responsibility that man has yet to fully appreciate.                        ~Jane

"One looks back with appreciation to the brilliant teachers, but with
gratitude to those who touched our human feelings.  The curriculum is so
much necessary raw material, but warmth is a vital element for the growing

"I have come to believe that a great teacher is a great artist and that there
