Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. said, “The function of education is to teach one to think intensively and to think critically. Intelligence plus character – that is the goal of true education.” It is so important for students to strive to achieve their academic goals. I enjoy spending everyday with my class, helping them to reach their potential, while at the same time watching them develop into good people. Among my students I see such kindness and consideration and it’s a true blessing to see them growing and walking in God’s example.
