Our teaching team holds true to marriage vows…to have and to hold, in good times and in bad, and for better or worse…and we wouldn’t have it any other way because it’s how we #LoveTeaching Heather Anderson

The connections I make with Ss don’t end with the school year. They’re forever. When I run into former Ss who are excited to tell me their life stories while I’m grocery shopping makes me a privileged shopper. #LoveTeaching

Blasting Livin’ on a Prayer Bon Jovi on my classroom speakers while getting ready for the day helps me #LoveTeaching, especially when SS walk in and sing the chorus along with me.

For the first time in nearly two decades, Wabanaki leaders will be giving a State of the Tribes address to a joint session of the Maine Legislature. I'm looking forward to hearing from our neighbors about their communities and priorities on Thursday morning. #mepolitics

Presenting today with my colleague Sue about collaboration at the MCELA Conference was such an uplifting experience. Maine teachers empower each other!

Aroostook County loves teachers. I am grateful for the support of my community so I could cook an Aroostook County meal at a MCSTOYA Retreat. Shout out to Irving Farms, Smith Farms, Goughans Farm, and Caribou Hannaford for their generous donations for teachers to enjoy!

“Notice how hard people around you are working so that you can do your job. The custodians and secretaries run the school. Treat them like royalty.” In order to #LoveTeaching we have to love the people around us.
