Sure, they create lesson plans, deliver instruction, and keep classrooms running smoothly. But more than that, they help students build confidence, strengthen emotional intelligence, and develop critical thinking skills. They encourage, support, and inspire—in and out of the classroom.Great teachers never stop learning. They’re lifelong learners with a deep passion for education. They reflect, grow, and constantly adapt to meet the needs of their students. They’re humble enough to learn from their colleagues, their students, and even from their own missteps.Great teachers are fierce advocates. They go the extra mile to make sure every student has a chance to succeed. From parent meetings to collaboration with fellow educators, they work tirelessly to create a safe and supportive learning environment. For many students, a great teacher is a steady presence in an otherwise uncertain world.<h3>2025 Deals and Discounts for National Teacher Appreciation Week</h3>Hey, teachers!

Working with these smaller groups of students inspired me to pursue a career in special education and becoming a BII was the natural next step.”<a href="https://www.crosscountry.com/blog/educator-spotlight-marisa-m-school-nurse?category=Educator+Spotlight" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> Marisa M. School Nurse</a> “I became a school nurse after working at a children's hospital. My time in the hospital was valuable, but I always wondered how my patients dealt with health challenges once they returned home. Becoming a school nurse has allowed me to bridge that knowledge gap and contribute to making education more accessible to kids with many different health conditions.”<a href="https://www.crosscountry.com/blog/educator-spotlight-renee-j-speech-language-pathologist?category=Educator+Spotlight" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Renee J., SLP</a> “I've always wanted to advocate for bilingual/bicultural and marginalized populations and speech-language pathology seemed like a great way to do that, along with a myriad of ways to do so.”However you decide to show your appreciation for the educators in your life, be sure to highlight National Teacher Appreciation Week on your calendar this year. From passing along teacher discounts and deals to organizing a school-wide event to sharing stories on social media, it's important to show them we care.<h3>Are You a Teacher in Search of a New Adventure?</h3>Do you want to rekindle your passion as an educator?
