#FCPSTeacherTuesday “Growing up, I was fortunate enough to have teachers and coaches who made learning engaging and meaningful. I recall countless hours spent in after-school clubs like speech and debate, theatre, and choir where I began to discover the power of my voice and the importance of community. This would not be possible without the support of my teachers who spent those hours by my side, dedicated to helping me uncover my potential and foster a love of learning. Every day, I am proud to be an educator because it allows me to support the next generation of students like my teachers supported me.” Olivia Adams English Teacher Rachel Carson Middle School If you'd like to join the hashtag#FCPSFam and become a teacher with FCPS, apply now! https://bit.ly/3DtIspG
