NATHALIE MATAS
MIAMI JACKSON SENIOR HIGH
STUDENT RECOGNITION STORY
Mx.matas is one of the few teachers that come In to your life and make a big impact, I met Mx.matad my junior year of highschool and at first I did not like them..but as the school year went by I started to notice that mx.matas was one of the most supportive and caring teachers their is. Mx.Matas try their best to make sure every student passes and even has faith in the students that other teachers has lost faith in and gave up on because they were trouble, They made me so excited to go to class because their class was the class that i actually paid attention in and learnt something, i felt so smart in their class. I let mx.matas know i care for them by always goin by their class everyday before class and getting a hug, its a core memory and habit iv grown found to have. Iv grown so much more confident and started to believe in myself more with school because they never gave up on me and always pushed me to be better and better everyday even if i didn’t want to try in school anymore..when I dropped out mx.matas was the first teacher to check on me and make sure I was making the correct decision for myself , Mx.matas also supports me outside of class by coming to all of my softball games and being the loudest one their for me and rooting for me. This is why i nominate Mx.matas
