Teaching patience – two local teachers discuss the teaching environment today

Rick Cahoon, 20-year teacher at Shepherd High School and Andrew Wawersik, first-year teacher at Harrison Community Schools, reflect on the past two years and offer insight into the future of their profession.

Wawersik, who completed his student teaching in the spring of 2019 during the height of the pandemic, has had no shortage of challenges within his first year in his new career. Cahoon, being more experienced, believes that the future of teaching may be at stake.
