I think you’re all equally important.

We overhear the most amazing conversations. On a daily basis, something new and inspirational always pops up. Today, without fail, one of our students happily exclaimed to his mother, “I’m the most important learner here.” He was so excited to see her, and share with her the adventures of the day. With a gentle, reassuring smile, and a sense of things, she responded. “I think you’re all equally important.” What a strong, powerful message.
