Day 250- Nov. 29- Teresa Annanack

Teresa Annanack has never been in my classes but she is an outgoing girl from the French sector that is impossible not to know. She's funny, caring and helpful. She's usually pretty quiet but you can be guaranteed that within the first you meet her you will learn who her laugh sounds like since she laughs a lot.

Teresa was one of the graduates from last June and I can honestly say that I am both proud and shocked that she was on the stage.

I am proud of her because she has shown consistency and dedication to her education and being involved in creating a positive school environment. She never gave up and could always be counted on to quietly support whatever projects we were doing. I am also feeling shock because I find it hard to believe that she's old enough to be completed Secondary 5!!! She was a young primary when I first arrived, so that proves I am way old that I feel.

As Teresa looks forward to the next few years, I hope she feels strong, happy and brave to keep going after her dreams. Don't let fear of the unknown hold you back!! The world is open to you and whatever you put your mind to doing!!  Don't follow everyone else's patterns and expectations just to fit in, but do things YOUR way and in your own time.
