...akin to the theme of "The Ugly Duckling," where each child grows to discover their own qualities and identity, and using it to achieve success. Reflecting on my diverse teaching experiences, I acknowledge a sobering truth: the high turnover rate among teachers in our education system. For years, I struggled to secure tenure, a plight shared by many educators across the United States. The bureaucratic red tape and political agendas that dominate our schools hinder...
