Let me just say it: Teachers are amazing.
As a mom of three, I’ve seen firsthand how teachers shape the lives of their students—including my own kids. I see the way they light up when they talk about what they learned at school. I see how much their confidence grows because of a kind word or encouragement from a teacher.
And I know I’m not the only parent who feels this way. We see what you’re doing. And we’re so grateful.
You’re Showing Up When It Counts Most
You’re not just covering material. You’re guiding kids through life. You’re helping them believe they’re capable. You’re encouraging them when they’re having a tough day. And you’re doing it all while juggling curriculum, technology, parent expectations—and let’s be honest—way too little appreciation.
But I want you to know that what you do matters. Your students may not say it now, but the impact you’re making will last long after they leave your classroom.
As a Parent, I Just Want to Say Thank You
It’s because of you that a quiet student will find her voice in front of a classroom. It’s because of you that an energetic first grader lights up when he gets to show what he’s learned. It’s because of you that students in schools everywhere are learning how to navigate the world with confidence.
That’s not small stuff. That’s everything.
You’re Equipping Students for More Than Just Tests
At Ramsey Education, we work with teachers across the country who are passionate about preparing their students for life—not just for test scores. And one of the most powerful ways to do that is by teaching personal finance.
When you show students how to budget, save and avoid debt, you’re giving them tools they’ll carry into adulthood. Tools that help them break cycles and build confidence.
I’ve heard stories about students who’ve gone home and helped their parents make a budget or avoid payday lenders. That’s the kind of real-world impact personal finance education can have.
We’re Here to Support You
We created Foundations in Personal Finance because we believe every student should be free to do what they were created to do—without money holding them back. And we believe teachers deserve a curriculum that helps them bring that vision to life.
If you’re teaching personal finance—or thinking about it—we’d love to walk alongside you.
You’re not just a teacher. You’re a life-changer.Thank you for showing up. Thank you for caring. Thank you for being the steady, encouraging voice your students need.
And if you’re a parent, student or friend who knows a teacher like that—let them know how much they mean to you.
This month, we’re celebrating amazing educators with our Teacher Appreciation Giveaway. If you know a teacher who deserves some extra love (and prizes!), send them this link so they can enter for a chance to win: ramseysolutions.com/teacher.
