My students are growing and learning in the same small, tight-knit, school community that inspired me to be a teacher. They are dreamers, thinkers, interviewers, and reporters. They are inspirations to themselves and others around them, even if they don't know it yet. The work they do in journalism, especially for the oral history magazine, Loblolly, which we publish yearly, teaches them about communicating and participating in an adult world successfully. They are writers, local ambassadors, entrepreneurs, teachers... They are our future, and I want to give them a great start on their path to becoming lifelong learners and doers.
