He makes sure every student is heard. He sees through even the quietest students in the back of class. He told me he received a gift from a student who probably hadn’t said 70 words all school year, but the fact that he was able to make a difference in her life for her to congratulate him in being an assistant principal was rewarding. He often shares this quote “ As a teacher, you often plant seeds of knowledge that you may never see grow.” He tells me he enjoys his job because he gets to see us grow as individuals. He has genuinely been there for every student. I had the opportunity to meet him during his first year of teaching to now his first year being an assistant principal.
