Teacher voice is so important to the education profession. As such, the Louisiana Department of Education (LDOE) seeks to elevate and recognize teachers in the trenches doing the hard work. Joni Lacy is the Talent Project Director for the Louisiana Department of Education. In her role, she shines light on teachers’ work, encouraging them to be uniquely themselves. When administrators and state representatives elevate teachers who are fully themselves, they also allow students to also be fully themselves.
