Special Education

Working in this classroom takes a toll
Only the strongest wish to take this roll
Not everyone understands what we do here
Lucky for us, a challenge is nothing to fear

Each student that walks through our door
Is different - yet the same in their core
Everyone receives love and a method of teaching
They don't teach in college this kind of reaching

We give all of our hearts to every child
From the quiet and meek to the loud and wild
There is no other profession that we'd rather do
Our mentors guided us, for even they knew

Sometimes our days seem like they'll never end
Others feel like we've gained not just coworkers but friends
The students only grow and leave us behind
In spirits, with friends, in body and their mind

As you walk through our halls keep us in mind
For though we are seldom seen, we are a special kind
Our students are smart and grow each day
And they teach us in their own special way

Special education is where we want to stay
Once more, we wouldn't want it any other way
