Before I became a middle school teacher, I was an elementary school teacher. Recently, one of my former 5th grade students came by to see me. She told me that she was graduating from Nursing School in December. I told her I was very proud of her. Then she tells me this.
Mr. Jones, I wrote an essay about you awhile back. The essay was entitled "My Most Influential Person". I won scholarship money because of that and it helped me finish school.
I was very humbled and I couldn't help it. With joy, like a river, they flowed down my face and onto my school shirt. I love what I do. I am so blessed to be a teacher.
