Proclamation

WHEREAS, teachers make public schools great; and

WHEREAS, teachers work to open student’s minds to ideas, knowledge and dreams; and

WHEREAS, teachers keep American democracy alive by laying the foundation for good citizenship; and

WHEREAS, teachers fill many roles, as listeners, explorers, role models, motivators and mentors; and

WHEREAS, teachers continue to influence us long after our school days are only memories;

Now, therefore, I, Lee Brookhart, serving as administrator of "The Brookhart Blog", join many other communities and thus

Do hereby proclaim Tuesday, May 3, 2005, as

National Teacher Day

I urge that we observe this day by taking time to recognize and acknowledge the impact of teachers on our lives.
