In a recent podcast episode, Newington educator Jennifer Rodriguez highlighted the significance of the new ad campaign, "Teachers Go the Extra Mile." This initiative aims to showcase the dedication and commitment that teachers demonstrate in their daily lives. Rodriguez emphasized the importance of raising awareness about the invaluable role educators play in shaping the future of their students.
The campaign seeks to celebrate the countless hours teachers invest beyond the classroom, whether through mentoring, after-school programs, or community engagement. Rodriguez shared personal anecdotes that illustrate how teachers often extend their support to ensure that every student has the opportunity to succeed.
By sharing these stories, the campaign hopes to foster a greater appreciation for the teaching profession and inspire others to recognize the hard work that goes unnoticed.
