OUR STORY
Welcome to Teacher Warriors, a community where teachers come together to share ideas and resources in a collaborative effort to inspire and equip kids to create change in the world. Teacher Warriors was created by Rachel Fahrenkrug, as a way to compile books, lesson plans, and resources addressing tough topics that are often neglected in classroom conversations. Our hope is that this website community will provide students, parents, and educators with the tools they need to engage in important conversations about the challenges faced by communities across the country, and take action to transform their environments.
OUR PHILOSOPHY
We believe that education empowers people to achieve change in their lives. Change in our attitudes, our preconceptions, and our critical thinking skills, is what contributes to the positive development of each person. Education should inspire a desire to not remain stagnant, but to learn more, become more, and achieve more than what we initially set out to do. Through learning, curiosity, and risk-taking, we are exposed to new thoughts, dreams, cultures, ideas, and possibilities for life that are endless. As teachers, our responsibility is to encourage students forward in their quest for more, scaffolding their exploration and challenging them to see new perspectives.
