The power of teachers can literally propel students into space! 🚀 Just ask @AstroAcaba - a @NASA astronaut & former teacher - who shares the life lessons he learned from his metal shop teacher Mr. Walters. #TeacherAppreciationWeek #TAW24 #TAW #ThankATeacher

Dear teachers, Thank you for all you do to support students.🍎🎒✏️ When students feel like adults in their school care about them, they're less likely to experience poor mental health. Thanks for making a difference. #TeacherAppreciationWeek Sincerely, @CDC_DASH

Mrs. Ransom is the reason that I became an educator. She saw in me the potential that I hadn’t yet seen in myself. Thank you to the teachers in classrooms across the country who see the potential in their students that they don’t yet see in themselves. #TeacherAppreciationWeek

Teaching is the only profession that creates other professions. Without teachers, there would be no engineers, doctors, artists, innovators, leaders...or other teachers! #ThankATeacher #TeacherAppreciationWeek #TAW24
