WHY DO YOU LIKE WORKING WITH STUDENTS?
I receive great joy from the Challenge of being able to sow seeds of Encouragement, Persverance, and Wisdom into the educational
foundation of their lives. This opportunity also energizes a purpose in my life that is summed up in the following statement:

The Wealth of the World is
Measured
By Diamonds and Gold
The Strength of a Nation is
Measured
By its Ability to Prepare our Youth for the Future

WHAT IS THE BEST ADVICE THAT YOU HAVE EVER RECEIVED?
You can have all the book sense in the world but if you don't know how to apply it (wisdom) then you are an educated fool
(Debbie King Johnson - Great Grandmother)

"You may encounter many defeats, but must not be defeated. In fact, it may be necessary to encounter the defeats, so you can know who you are, what you can rise from, how you can still come out of it." (Maya Angelou)

ATTITUDE DOES DETERMINE YOUR ALTITUDE!
