There are no words to describe how wonderful our day at school was yesterday.
David was an outstanding speaker – his humor, music, honesty, was all spot on.
Teachers were telling me this morning that yesterday was one of the best experiences in their 20 years of teaching. The students were still talking about it today, we have been able to have conversations about forgiveness, determination, will power, and decision making.
We look forward to working with you all in the future. We can not thank you all enough, please send our sincerest gratitude to your speakers, activity organizers and your sponsors.
