"Teachers are lamplighters. We can never teach all there is to know; we can only turn on the lights so others can see what there is to learn or
to become. Always when a person puts a light in another’s darkness, two lights burn together, and unimaginable dark
nesses are brightened. I teach because lamps have been lighted for me, and I am challenged to light a lamp in someone else’s
darkness."

-“To light a Lamp” by Carolyn H. Pittman |
Excerpts from a teacher’s prayer:
In Praise of Learning
For reading: that peculiar marks on a page are so able to inform us, to entertain us, and
move us to laughter and tears …
For handwriting, grammar and spelling; which as tools enable us to capture our thoughts
and communicate them clearly to others …
For mathematics; with its dependable patterns and principles which reassure
us that the world is not so inconstant as we might fear…
For science; which challenges us to explore our universe
and reveals the world to be all the more wonderful the more we understand it …
For social studies; which teaches
us to know ourselves and to know each other …
For art; with its absorbing, unexcelled joy of making, seeing, and
appreciating the beautiful …
For music; with its mystical power to reach us and unite us as nothing else can …
For
physical education; which teaches us to understand our bodies, and gain satisfaction inherent in strength and skill …
Father,
for all truth, and for hearts and minds to know the truth, we thank you.
