[QUOTE="everywoman, post: 276236, member: 1436"] I am touched almost everyday by the students that I teach. One in particular comes to mind. Jermaine was a nice looking, well dressed young man. He lived with his elderly grandfather in a small "house" if that's what you want to call it. His grandfather was very sick. He dies the year Jermaine was a junior. He was 17--too old to place, too young to be on his own. The school took him in---teachers, other parents all helped him make it through the rest of his junior year and his senior year. He came to school every day. He was polite, cheerful, and so thankful for everything. He had every reason in the world not to do well, but he had such a desire to succeed that he amazed me. [/QUOTE]
