Why will they miss you?

If for whatever reason, you were not able to teach tomorrow, or next month, or next school year, would you be missed? The bigger question is, why would you be missed? Would you be missed simply because you were a fixture, having been in the same classroom, or at the same school for a looooong time? Or, would you be missed as you were an enzyme for change, you encouraged collaboration amongst your colleagues, you sought to use innovative methods to present your material, or you stood for what was right, no matter if it went against the popular opinion, namely, your chances of upward mobility may have been hindered by you simply expressing, even in a respectful way, what was right?

Why would you be missed? Think about it. If necessary, set your sails now, set a new and positive course, its never too late to change.
