The Road Less Traveld By - Thank you teachers!

 by Superintendent Robert "Bob" Lewandowski

During teacher appreciation week I would like to offer a special thank you to all educators for taking the road less traveled by. This is sometimes the most rewarding profession and yet the most difficult. It is the road to a modest living, but huge personal rewards for making a difference in the life of others, "and that has made all the difference." With that in mind, a special thank you to the teachers that I have had as a student, those I've taught with and those I serve. I feel blessed.

The Road Not Taken

BY ROBERT FROST

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,

And sorry I could not travel both

And be one traveler, long I stood

And looked down one as far as I could

To where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair,

And having perhaps the better claim,

Because it was grassy and wanted wear;

Though as for that the passing there

Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay

In leaves no step had trodden black.

Oh, I kept the first for another day!

Yet knowing how way leads on to way,

I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh

Somewhere ages and ages hence:

Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—

I took the one less traveled by,

And that has made all the difference.
