"I would love to invite lawmakers to come into our classrooms and see what’s really happening on the frontlines so that maybe they can make better decisions about our schools. With all of the challenges that the teachers in DPS are facing, most of us have not walked away. We are dedicated, and most of us love the job. This job is a calling. It’s about love."
