Where Retired Administrators and Teachers Work Together

RETIRED TEACHERS WEEK OF APPRECIATION
OCT 16-20, 2023
Reflection Question: Do you realize how important your teacher and/or administrator job was to our children and how important your retired participation is to our community?

You taught thousands of students and influenced their lives to become good people. You were a role model to our youth, now our leaders and workers in our country. As a teacher, you were the foundation for successful adults. Many retired educators give during retirement through volunteerism and work in our schools, businesses, and churches. You were and are a force to be reckoned with. Congratulations, pat yourself on the back, and glow with the good feeling of a well-done job. Thank you for your past work, present work, volunteerism, and continued interest in our community. Job well done!

Susan Thurman, President, Jefferson County Retired Teachers Association (JCRTA)
