NPEF's documentary "Why I Teach" provides a firsthand look at the day in the life of three Metro Nashville Public Schools educators. Watch as they prepare their classrooms, deliver engaging lessons for their students, grade papers, collaborate with other educators, and complete the many responsibilities teachers juggle through the course of a school day. Hear directly from teachers about the challenges they face and the joyful moments that keep them motivated to teach each and every day.

Why I Teach shares a realistic overview of the daily duties of public school teachers, and aims to dispel myths about the teaching profession while highlighting the incredible talent and dedication of our teachers.
