About 400,000 public school teachers use DonorsChoose.org to bring resources to their students. Cumulatively, those teachers comprise a body of knowledge, creativity, dedication, expertise, and compassion like no other. However, when it came time to look back at this school year, we asked them to flip the script.

We don't quite have enough room for that here, but here are nine of our many favorites for your reading pleasure.
*So say Mrs. B's students.**We love Buffy too, Mr. H!
