Feeling the love

As a first-grade teacher, I get to know my students and parents really well. It's one of the best parts of teaching. However, yesterday, my Junior at Johnson had to make some schedule changes. He had to work with the counselor, Mrs. Meza. He came home and told me how hard she worked with him to get the best possible schedule. He ended the conversation with "Mrs. Meza loves me!". He is an average student. He is not a stand out athlete. But in a school of over 2,000 (maybe 3,000?), he came home bragging that his counselor loves him. My mommy heart was so happy! In a place that teaches so many, he got the personal attention that truly impacted him!
