On my desk Monday morning:
Mrs. Frost,
You've seriously inspired me to do my best and push myself to reach my dreams. I wanted to say thank you. Thank you for holding me and comforting me when that stupid boy was being just that, stupid. Thank you for being the best teacher that I've ever had. Thank you for choosing to be the first in your family to go to college. Thank you for teaching at PCHS. Thank you for being my teacher.
I've been going through a lot, and you were (and still are) the person that I trusted to be able to talk to. I really do believe it was more than just randomness that I had you for a teacher. Our lives are so closely similar. I believe that there was a reason behind you being my teacher. You;re a blessing to me. You;re the person that I can go to about anything. You really have helped me more than you know.
I know that this schools year has been rough on you, but always remember that each day you are a blessing to every single one of us. I know that you're a lot older than me, but I have come to love you as if you were my own older sister. You mean so much to me and other people, so never let little things get you down.
I love you!!
Shai
P.S. I can't wait for the next 6 years to fly by so I can proudly teach beside you.
"Without inspirations, the best powers of the mind remain dormant. There is a fuel in us which needs to be ignited with sparks."

Thank you for being my spark- Shai
What can you say to that? This has been a really rough year for me. I have struggled with self-doubt every day.Yet again I find myself the student, and I find myself completely humbled. There is so much more I want to write, but I really feel like this letter should stand on its own to remind me again why I am a teacher.
