The Elation of Education – As Seen By TEacher Optimists

Last week’s gala – where I had the privilege to speak at an event to remember with my current Head of Schools & Co-Founder of PSAT Academy – and former elementary co-worker, Ms. Camisha Adams

Many people have heard of countless accounts Post-COVID of how educators are leaving the field in droves. This is true for many reasons. However, there are many educators who continue to instruct and inspire amidst the challenges because there’s still elation to be found in education.

I’m privileged to work alongside one of those amazing powerhouses, whom I first met early in our teaching careers when she taught Pre-K and I taught 2nd grade. Our experience has since come full circle! Today, we’re achieving the impossible in a contemporary environment with cutting-edge technology, and I couldn’t be more excited!

Here’s a lyrical acronym in honor of this special moment. Thank you to Ms. Camisha Adams for extending my educational journey into adventures previously unknown!

Engaged in the 
Dedication of
Unbiased instruction
Customized for each student
Anchored by passion
Taught from the heart to
Open young minds to both
Realities and possibilities so they can
Simply soar.

To every educator who has and continues to prepare the next generation, thank you. #educatorsrock #work #passion #heart #ministry #priceless #drcarlamichelle

  1. I’ve come to realize it isn’t just teachers who’ve left… a lot of administrators have left too. Many of the principals, curriciulum directors, etc. I worked with prior to the pandemic took early retirement or left the field entirely.

    What a beautiful celebration of Camisha Adams!

    BTW: That’s a gorgeous photo! Both of your smiles are radiant. 🙂
