Retired Teachers Week Nov. 1-7

If you can read this letter, maybe you should thank a teacher. The week of November 1-7 is California Retired Teachers Week and we all owe a tremendous debt of gratitude to those teachers who not only taught us but shaped us in our youth.

Even after leaving their classroom, teachers continue to have a positive impact on Fallbrook and the surrounding communities. Through their volunteer efforts, Fallbrook Division 81 Retired Teachers have tallied 98,528 hours of activities ranging from assisting in classrooms, driving patients to doctor’s appointments, teaching English as a Second Language at the library, membership in church and community choirs, and caring for the homebound. These activities are currently worth $142,540 to our community.

So, in addition to thanking your former teacher, why not also volunteer some of your time. Working together we can all make a difference!
