My Favorite Teacher

My third grade teacher was one of my most favorite educators in my life. She taught third grade like it was simple. She was a positive role model to the other teachers, and she was from the old school. She was caring and she had a demeanor about her that she was the "model" teacher. Those were not the only reasons why I loved Mrs. Scott. Mrs. Scott would send me to the cafeteria in the mornings to get breakfast for her. She would break off a piece of sausage biscuit for herself and gave me the rest. The other students were jealous, however she had an interest in all of her students. I can remember when I got in trouble in Mrs. Scott's class she wouldn't have a problem with calling my mom and then I would go home with an ass whippin waiting for me. My mom had fury in her eyes when she whipped my ass. Till this day, I believe my mom started her own martial art because she was SKILLED in whippin my ass. Anyways, after I was disciplined for my bad conduct in Mrs. Scott's class, I shaped up a little. Mrs. Scott began to notice my weight and she thought it was in issue. Mrs. Scott got permission from my parents for me to get salads for lunch instead of the regular cafeteria food. It was awesome! The other kids were jealous big time now because I had an "adult" entree instead of their "mystery meat with peas". I think I was on the salds for a good 2 weeks and I lost some weight that year. Mrs. Scott was really happy and of course my doctor and parents too. The following year Mrs. Scott was not at school, I dont know whether she transferred to another school or she became ill. I never got to truly thank her for her encouragement and her determination in helping me.



Thank You Mrs. Scott for everything.



Especially the sausage biscuits.





This post is dedicated to all educators in the public school system. You are under paid and over worked. Give a fat kid a sausage biscuit and they will love you for life.
