October is filled with opportunities to recognize the people who make a difference in the lives of our children. Please share this with someone who needs to hear this today.
Today, October 2, is School Custodian Appreciation Day, and later this month we will recognize many more of the people who show up every day to teach, encourage, coach, lead, protect and care for our students.
🍎 October 5 – World Teachers' Day
🏆 October 6 – National Coaches Day
🚌 October 20-24 – National School Bus Safety Week
Teachers. Coaches. Administrators. Custodians. Cafeteria workers. Counselors. Bus drivers. Support staff. And so many others whose names may never appear on an award or recognition.
This song is for you.
Still, You'll Never Know was written for the people who show up early, go home late, carry more than most people ever see, and sometimes lie awake wondering if they did enough.
Sometimes the people who spend their lives encouraging everyone else need a little encouragement too.
Still, You'll Never Know
