There is one big reason to work in a school. Incredible things. You are surrounded with kids. Kids who haven’t lost their creative filters. Who still dream big, explore on a tangent, and push your thinking in a way that makes most adults uncomfortable. It’s been said “The creative adult is the child who survived.” (Ursula Le Guin) We need to make our classrooms something more than a place for kids’ creativity to survive. We need to foster it, encourage it, and embrace it. Because then? We’ll find the incredible things that inspire us.
