“
Educators are agents of change. This pandemic has proven that to be true and emphasized the importance of engaging all students in ways that inspire. Teachers have the power to energize students to read, write, and think critically in powerful ways. Our students must believe that they are brilliant individuals whose voice matters and have the confidence to use it. Our classrooms can instill in students the belief that they can positively impact the future. Cultivating passion and dedication will better prepare our students to participate as informed, respectful, open-minded, and responsible citizens who care for their environment and possess compassion for humanity." - Cindy Soule, 2021 Maine Teacher of the Year
