Everyone knows that teachers in America are badly underpaid. If only society could appreciate teachers as much as this child does.

Parker Williams loves going to school. His parents have taught him that a good education means that he’ll have more opportunities later in life.

Luckily, Williams’s world-class teacher, Mrs. Chambers, has done a lot to help him really enjoy going to school.

“I think she’s a really kind teacher, and she has her own way of teaching, and she spends time on everybody.” – Parker Williams.

Like many teachers, Mrs. Chambers has so much to deal with.

Teaching is a high-pressure job, and it can feel hard to keep afloat sometimes. But she does whatever she can for the kids. Everyone in her class knows that Mrs. Chambers wants to help them do well in life.

So when Williams heard on the TV that teachers were underpaid, he realized that this must also apply to Mrs. Chambers. Therefore, he made it his mission to get her a pay rise.

Recently, Williams had his ninth birthday. He received a bunch of presents and also $15 in cash. When Williams’s relatives asked him what he was going to spend it on, he wouldn’t say. But the child had already made up his mind.

On the next school day, Williams took all of his birthday money in with him as well as a thank-you note he’d written.

The note opened with the following message: “Dear Mrs. Chambers, I don’t think that teachers get paid enough for what they do. So will you accept this gift.”

When Mrs. Chambers saw this note, her eyes immediately started welling up with tears. She’d always done this job for the kids in-spite of the money. And Williams’s gesture really showed her just how much he appreciated her.

“Teachers put their all in all the time. We often take work home. Our day doesn’t end when the bell rings. It’s so great that Parker realized that we do a lot extra.” – Mrs. Chambers.

Mrs. Chambers wrote Williams another note and placed it, along with the money, in Williams’s bag. Her own note said that she couldn’t accept her student’s money but that she really appreciated his gesture.

She also said that students like Williams are the reason why she loves teaching.

When Williams got home, his parents learned of what had happened.

They told him that what he had done for his teacher was incredibly selfless. Darrell Williams, the boy’s father, posted the child’s and the teacher’s note to Facebook. Pretty soon, this post had been shared hundreds of times.

Many people have responded to the post praising Williams’s actions. People have been commenting things like this:

Clearly, Williams will go on to have an amazing future. If only everyone raised their children to appreciate what others do for them and to realize that there are problems in our society, such as low teacher pay.

Jennifer Williams, the boy’s mom, has done a lot to teach her child to help others. Whenever the boy gets birthday money, she says that he has to give 10% of it to charity. She does this to teach him the importance of community and helping others. But by attempting to give all of his cash to his teacher, the child has really shown how big his heart is.
