To all of the middle school teachers working with young adolescents, YOU MATTER. You show up inside and outside of the classroom for your students every day. Though a teacher, teaching is far from the only thing you do. You are encouragers, counselors, snack providers, consolers, mentors, self-esteem builders, and shapers of the future. To all the middle school administrators working with young adolescents every day, YOU ALSO MATTER.
