Feeling Great
A student I taught last year in the alternative school came to the school Thursday. I was in a faculty meeting for over an hour. One of the security personnel informed me that someone was waiting to see me and it was one of my former students who exited last year. He came and embrace me and was thanking me for the help that I and many others have given him and put him on the right path. Now he has passed the graduation test and already has been embraced by the fraternity Alpha Kappa Alpha at Morehouse College. The job is tedious sometime but that is when I realize thank GOD, that what makes my job worthwhile. Thank you for that question it was on time.
Keep up the good work and stay safe!!
ReplyDeleteI have had several student return to the school or i see them arounf town as well. Knowing that you have been throught the same things that they have been through really helps them know that we have been down the same road that they are on now. I try to teach them life lessons as well as public safety. Being a teach and mentor is a great thing.
