First and foremost I am proud of the young man my son is growing to be (and am incredibly awe-struck at the notion that I may have something to do with that:) I am proud of the deep-rooted connections I have been able to make with young people as a classroom teacher/coach. It has been rewarding to be a part of a high school sport that has experienced a great deal of growth due in large part to the positive experiences that many of our athletes have had. I was able to attend an "I Make a Difference" awards banquet as a guest of one of Clay's Salutatorians a couple of years ago and I find it personally inspiring to be fortunate enough to work with these incredible young people. I am proud of the fact that I am keenly aware of the awesomeness of young people and how lucky I am to be in a position to give them the respect that they deserve.
