Bruce Springsteen is perhaps the most prolific songwriter of
our generation. His music and lyrics
speak to people of all ages around the world.
To my knowledge, he has never written a song about teachers, but some of
his song titles could certainly be interpreted as educational anthems.
Tougher than the Rest (Tunnel of Love)
Teachers are faced with challenges every day, many of which are beyond our control. For the sake of students we need to remain strong and carry on.

We Take Care of Our Own (Wrecking Ball)
The definition of “our own” has certainly evolved over time. Whereas it once meant a single classroom its definition is now much broader.

Better Days (Lucky Town)
As professionals we have the choice to believe that these are better days in education, and if we don’t it is our obligation to advocate for change.

Growin Up (Greetings from Asbury Park)
Students are not the only ones growing, through quality professional development and reflection teachers grow also.

Leap of Faith (Lucky Town)
Teachers and students alike will thrive when encouraged to take risks and given the opportunity to think outside the box.

Reason to Believe (Nebraska)
Sometimes you may have to search, but your students will give you reasons to believe in them every day.

Talk to Me (The Promise)
Communication is crucial to a school’s success. Between administrators, parents, teachers, students, or any other stakeholder, keeping one another informed and in the know helps create a culture of trust.
