Teachers deserve our thanks—and our support
By Bill Gates | August 1, 2022
Even though my youngest child graduated from high school last year, the academic year is still top of mind for me—especially after the hardships that COVID has caused over the past two years. There has never been a more important time to support teachers.
I’ve just published two Gates Notes posts about fantastic teachers and what they say they need to succeed.
One is about Jerad Koepp, the Washington State Teacher of the Year. Jerad runs a program to support Native American students in a school district outside of Olympia, Washington. I got to meet him earlier this year, and I was blown away by how thoughtful and inspiring he is. I think you will be too. He even helped me sew my first medicine bag!
Read about Jerad and his work
I also wrote about the OER Project, which creates high-quality high school courses and makes them free online. The project also offers free instructional support and professional development for teachers. The OER Project team has been doing this work for a decade now, and they’ve learned a lot about how to help teachers do their best work.
