My Story
Is there a teacher to whom you owe a debt of gratitude for their belief in you and your capabilities?That one teacher for me was Miss Lillian Biard when I attended school at the Navy base in the Panama Canal Zone. She discovered I liked reading, and her love of teaching her students to read brought her and her students tremendous satisfaction. It was then that I decided to be a teacher like Miss Biard.
A Dog Named Sasha
Although I had dogs as a child, I never had one until I met Sasha, a Project POOCH dog. She was a German shepherd mix turned into the Humane Society by her family. She sat in her kennel with her back to visitors, but I wanted to look at her anyway.
Youth Named Marcel
I learned so much; one of the things I took from the program is, and that I definitely use every day, is work ethic and putting in 100% effort daily and being honest. Since I’ve left, I’ve seen on so many occasions the lack of pride and work ethic in people.
