"I think just my long-term goal is for the future generations: make sure that they are empathetic, empathetic, loving and caring. Give every kid that comes in my room the confidence to know that they're capable," said Ozark teacher Chelsea Noe. This week, KSMU presents "Why I Teach," part of our Sense of Community series.

Earlier this month, for Sense of Community, we interviewed several teachers in the Ozarks about why they teach — and what they face.
