This piece highlights the everyday challenges within the classroom and without. Further, it explores the recourse teachers can take to mitigate those challenges. It is an anecdotal piece from the perspective of a teacher, leader, and advocate in education. It serves as a reminder to fellow educators of the reasons we need to be active in our own profession, not just in our classrooms. Teachers are encouraged to be willing to reflect and ask questions, to be flexible in the field, and to maintain an openness toward trying something new. The author shares her own challenge in navigating the multiple personalities that she adopts within her field in order to remain a relevant teacher and also to serve as an advocate. Teachers are encouraged to join in and take ownership in elevating the profession so that others must take notice. Having a system of support is critical for teacher survival and relevancy. The author attempts to address the growing concerns of teachers and why it is crucial that we become leaders while sharing ideas on how teachers can lead in order to effect real change in the educational system and the legislature.
