Abstract

Many years ago I received an e-mail from one of my students that directed me to a writing of Louis Schmier titled “Holiness in Teaching.” Most of my former students have recognized my deep conviction that teaching is a very important undertaking. During the first fifteen or so years of my career they must have perceived this from the way I interacted with them and spoke about the responsibilities of teachers and schools, because I rarely stated explicitly that teaching is a sacred activity.
