My students are full of light. Each day they fill the room up with this light, whether it be energetic knocks on my door in the morning or their laughter at their own, each others', and my silliness. They love to sing and dance, and they love to create. At times their lights go dim. They get angry, sad, or lost. It is my job as their teacher to teach them that no matter how dim this light gets, to never let it go out. It is my job to guide them to be self-sufficient and self-reliant so that they are aware of this light and learn how to keep it on themselves.
