You’ve heard the saying “If you can read this, thank a teacher!” There is another story of the school Principal coming into the classroom of Mrs. Grumpy, the oldest teacher at the school. He looked around then wrote “Dust Me” in the dust on top of Mrs. Grumpy’s desk. The Principal said, “What do you think of that?” Mrs. Grumpy never missed a beat in replying, “The wonders of education!”

Which brings us to a celebration of education. Next week is Teacher Appreciation Week and we’re celebrating in Red River Parish. This video was supplied by Renee’ Hester at Red River Schools. Watch the video, then stop by any school in the parish and say “Thank You” to a teacher.
