On October 5, we celebrate World Teachers’ Day, a time to reflect on the remarkable contributions of educators and the essential role they play in guiding the learning and growth of our students. This day reminds us of the impact teachers have, not only in classrooms, but also in shaping the strength and character of our wider community.

As we acknowledge this day, we invite everyone to recognize the educators who have made a difference in their lives. Share your stories of teachers who have encouraged, inspired, or challenged you, as these experiences highlight the power of education to transform lives. Our community thrives because of the dedication and care that our teachers bring each day.

On behalf of the senior team and the Richmond Board of Education, I offer our gratitude to all teachers in our district. Thank you for your commitment, your passion for teaching and your role in supporting the success of every student.

With sincere appreciation,

Christopher Usih
Superintendent of Schools
Richmond School District
