A Party For An Inspirational Teacher


--by SmileSharer, posted Jul 23, 2013
 My social studies teacher is leaving our school for a new job. 
 
He has been with us for about three years and is dear to me and my friends. He is one of the best teachers we have and we will be sad to see him go. He has to leave because his youngest son is ill and he needs to work closer to home.
 
As a thank-you present and a good-bye gift we are giving him a surprise party on the day he leaves. We will bring in his favorite foods, play his favorite music, and so much more. I am putting a video together for him of all of the funny sayings he has and funny stories told by other staff members. Another friend is putting funny video clips and pictures we have of him together into a movie.
 
My Spanish teacher has helped us organize this and I really appreciate all the support and help we are getting from others at school! 
 
It makes me so happy to know how much of a family our small school is and how supportive everyone is of each other.
 
I am sad to see a dear friend and teacher leave but I hope he enjoys his new job and his son gets better soon!
