Michael Bennet Job Quotations

My time at the Denver Public Schools taught me there is no harder, or more important, job than being a teacher.

I believe there's not a harder job in the world than being a teacher, and there isn't a job with a more direct impact on the performance of our students.

I believe people I represent still aspire to the idea that our job as a generation is to provide more opportunity to the people coming after us, not less.

You know a Senate race is obviously a much smaller deal than a presidential race. What I think makes a very hard job considerably easier when you're going to debate is if you have reminded yourself - or somebody has reminded you during the course of your campaign - that consistency is enormously important. That people don't want to hear you say one thing in one part of the state and another thing in another part of the state.

To get enough of the teachers we need, teaching has to be a great job where talented people are supported and rewarded.

I am most interested in the outcomes at schools and school districts and ensuring that all kids are prepared for college and a career in the 21st-century job market.

Our ability to compete for the jobs of tomorrow depends, above all, on our capacity to educate children today.
