"Our teachers were always there: they supported us in our sports games on the weekends; they took us on trips to Sweetwater Ranch; some spent weeks traveling with us in the summer; they met us at Starbucks in the evenings to talk about papers; and they stayed up for all hours of the night to chaperone prom and homecoming. They wanted to guide us down the right path, and they cared about our happiness: I never went through a day without a teacher asking how I was doing or what was going on in my life."
