If I were principal for a day: I would give everyone recess

Favorite school memory: 8th grade class trip to Washington DC and the bus ride to and from.

People who have been an inspiration to me include: Grandma Sally

Because: She always kept a positive attitude and never gave up. She could face the biggest challenges and work her way through it without complaining.

Lately, I have been reading: School related material

My advice to parents: Let your kids try new things, even if it is something you don’t like. If you want your kids happy then give them the opportunity to be happy.
