Teacher's Day 2016 (Mexico, South Korea)
This Doodle’s Key Themes
It’s impossible to measure the impact of a great teacher. The curiosity they ignite in young minds will become the mathematical theorems, medical breakthroughs, and beautiful art that makes the world of tomorrow a better place. Today’s homepage by artist Nate Swinehart honors the invaluable civil servants who’ve dedicated their lives to molding a thoughtful, compassionate generation of citizens. And to making sure everyone does their homework.
Happy Teacher’s Day.
