Return of exit students

It was delightful when two of my students return to the alternative school to thank me for being a great influence and kept them focus to exit from the school. They both have passed the high school graduation test and informed me that I will be receiving invitations to their high school graduations. This was rewarding to me and it was a teaching moment, because I was conducting class at the time and used these exiting students as examples to let the other students know that it can be done, students do leave the alternative school and graduate and become successful. Thank God for giving me that spirit.
