In honor of Teacher Appreciation Week, one of our teaching and learning specialists reflects on how three exceptional teachers shaped her as a person—and an educator.
Schilsky is president and chief creative director of the Warehouse Project & Gallery. She holds a master's degree in social work from Loyola University, Chicago and a bachelor of arts in sociology and anthropology from North Central College, Naperville, IL.
Teachers don’t want to be called saints or soldiers. Let’s mark Teacher Appreciation Week with a commitment to go beyond the rhetoric and speak accurately about teaching as a profession.
