Recognizing: World Teachers Day Oct 6.
Honoring our Teachers today on World Teachers' Day for the great and tireless work they do. CHALK4PEACE would not know what to do without teachers! Without them, we're sure CHALK4PEACE would have never grown to the size and presence it has today. Thank you for all the knowledge you share, the papers you read, the artwork you organize, the hands you hold, the patience you have, the ear that listens... and the acrobatic juggling of being on the front lines of Education! Thank you ALL!!! Here are a few of our (your) dear friends...
