“My sixth-grade teacher. Her name was Mrs. Hodges. She was probably the only teacher that really got to know you on a personal level. She still asks me how I’m doing and keeps in touch. She was very inspirational and was more like a mentor than just a teacher.”

“My teacher Ms. Sarah from the charter school. She’s let me try new things like running and yoga, and she has made sure that I always have something to do and that it’s always fun, and that’s helped me be more creative and learn more.”
