ABC's and 123's of Success

"The dream begins with a teacher who believes in you, who tugs and pushes and leads you to the next plateau, sometimes poking you with a sharp stick called Truth."
- Dan Rather

Teaching is really a noble profession. Teachers are the one responsible in feeding the empty minds of students, enriching it, until such time it will already be filled with knowledge and wisdom. Just think of it, without teachers, there will surely be no doctors, nurses, engineers, architects and lawyers in the planet. You can never tell when a teacher's influence would be put to a halt.

At Ilocos Sur National High School, excellence is always being displayed. Our school has been a prominent recipient of various awards and recognitions ever since it was established, all thanks to the teachers. They are the principal reasons for the achievement of these feats.

Teachers are our second parents, this is what we always hear and if you really ponder upon this, it is indeed true. They do not only teach abc and 123, they also teach the Science of Discipline and the Mathematics of Love, but the most precious of all, they teach us how to spell Success. With the possession of these exceptional traits and challenging responsibilities, they can already be a rightful claimant of the title and be called Heroes and Heroines,

Imagine how hard it is to be a teacher.They need to wake up early to go to school and spend almost 10 hours teaching us, students. Sometimes, they even work overtime when giving pieces of advice to their students who have problems in order to settle it and remember, they are not given extra credits for doing this. See how delicate teachers are? Think again, without them, would we ever know the square root of 25, scientific name of a dog, the geometry of molecules and even the economic status of our country? So we must be very thankful to them.

My fellow students, let us learn how to respect them, care for them, thank them and most of all, love them. Now ask yourselves, "Without teachers, where would I be now?" They are the reasons behind every student's and every man's bigger, better and brighter future. They are the Modern Day Heroes of this World. So don't be shy and proudly say "Teacher, Thank You and I Love You!"
