I encourage students to take advantage of any opportunities to learn and I ask colleagues, who have information to assist students, for their resources. I also tell students to prepare themselves to intervene on behalf of their own children should they have any. The better educated they are, the easier time their children will have in school. The better education they have, the more opportunities they will have, as well as their children. Knowledge is power and it puts you in a place where you can control your own outcomes.
If students are having difficulty with school content, where can they get help? If they are having trouble with transportation to school, where can they get help? If they are being harassed in school, where can they get help?
I tell students those teachers who want to teach their classes and help them learn, are their friends, not their enemies.
I tell students that if someone doesn't like you because of you color, creed, ethnic origins or gender, outperform them!
If a staff member doesn't like you, the best way to show them up, is by being their BEST student.
A successful businessperson will hire the person with the best skills, not the person who they think has the best look.
