Qualified teachers are the backbone of any educational system. Teachers guide their students' personal and mental development and make them want to achieve. At a time when they are most ready to learn,and are building a foundation for learning Florida's youngest students are not being taught by educated teachers.

Send a letter to the Children's Campaign, showing your support for degreed teachers in pre-k classrooms.

Dear [ Decision Maker ] ,

I am writing to convey my support of degreed teachers in pre-kindergarten classrooms by the year 2013.

Qualified teachers are the backbone of any educational system. Teachers guide their students' personal and mental development and make them want to achieve.

The emerging research clearly shows that better educated pre-k teachers with specialized training are more effective, respond more sensitively to children's needs, and provide more positive feedback and encouragement. Their students score better on language tests, have higher self-confidence, are more sociable, and present fewer behavior problems.

I support degreed teachers in pre-k classrooms.

Sincerely,
