With the hustle and bustle of a new school year, our attention turns to the students of Walton Verona, but what about the teachers who paved the way for us? In the corridors of a bustling school, teachers face daily battles against the constant bickering between students, eternal hours of teaching, and eye rolls in the back of the room. Beyond the curriculum, teachers grapple with the weight of students’ struggles, often staying late to offer support and encourage students to carry on. The constant pressure of meeting demands and inadequate resources provided tests their patience and mentality. Despite these hardships, teachers remain driven by a deep commitment to nurturing potential and bettering society.
Such great teachers, like Mr. Pollock, “look forward to collaborating with other teachers, help in reading and writing, find new books, and help kids fall in love with them.” Mr. Pollock, who was once an English teacher, switches over to the library to show students how to love reading.
