This Made Me Tear Up

I got this note from Colt’s teacher. It made me tear up. I truly believe there are no bad students, just bad teachers. Teachers should inspire you to learn and find ways to pique your curiosity. This was by far Colton’s favorite teacher and geography was never a subject he was interested in before so that says a lot.

Modern World Geography (Cyr, Colton) - 04/26/2022

Colt scored a 100% on his final!! I just KNEW that he would! He applied the five themes of geography accurately given examples and definitions, and this will set him up well when he takes Cultural Geography as a freshman. I can't believe we are at the end, and that I won't see Colt for so long! I told him that I probably wouldn't recognize him when he comes back in the fall, and I made him promise not to scare me when he comes back like Vin Diesel! I hope you all have a wonderful break! Please take pictures of any trips you take. After his exam was done, Colt and I talked about ziplining and climbing adventures! I showed him pictures of the time I went ziplining in a cave (Mammoth Caves, Kentucky area; it's called Mega Caverns). I hope you all have lots of fun family adventures that I can ask him about when he returns. Happy vacation!! Colt has been an amazing student, and even if he's not on my schedule for the fall, I am still his lead teacher, so I'll be checking in on him and his progress. If you need anything over the break, please email me! I'll be teaching all summer, so if you're in a destination and you want some enrichment exercises for Colton, I'd be happy to oblige. He's so smart and inquisitive, though, that I doubt you'll need any assistance finding something he loves. He seems to be able to find passion in just about anything. What an amazing son you have!
