Stories & Memories

The Day He Changed My Life

By a family member • November 10, 2025

I was a struggling student in my sophomore year when Mr. Johnson took me under his wing. He stayed after school countless times to help me with my reading and writing. He told me I had potential and that he believed in me. Because of his encouragement, I went on to college and became a teacher myself. I owe so much to this incredible man.
