Farewell Poem For Teacher Retiring

Posted by teacher on February 23, 2011

With a special gift for teaching
And with a heart that deeply cares,
You add a lot of love
To everything you share,
And even though you mean a lot,
You’ll never know how much,
For you helped to change the world
Through every life you touched.

You sparked the creativity
In the students whom you taught,
And helped them strive for goals
That could not be bought,
You are such a special teacher
That no words can truly tell
However much you were valued
For the work you did so well.

This comes to you from all of us
Indeed the entire school
The staff describe you as dedicated
The kids just think you’re cool
But we are all unanimous
In saying you deserve a rest
Have a long and happy retirement
We wish you all the best
***************************

Can you cope with having no classroom strife?
What are you going to do for the rest of your life?
Hobbies perhaps is the thing to do
Now you’ve got time just for you
The place will not be the same
When we no longer hear your name
For someone who worked extremely hard
All our best wishes come with this card
A Very Happy Retirement
**************************
For teaching children lessons,
to help them as they grow,
Let this gift remind you,
You’re the best teacher we know!
