27 August 2020: Reaction to viewing "Don't Waste 2020" by Prince EA
My reaction to the video "Don't Waste 2020" by Prince EA was to think about all of the things I have been doing to be productive during the last few months. Although the video was created early in December of 2019, and there have been massive changes to our lives since then, the message of the video remains clear. I should continue to be excited about my choice to become a teacher. I believe that it is truly my calling in life, and I enjoy using all of the experiences, both good and bad, to help guide me in my purpose to help prepare students for college and careers in the future. I will continue to seek out training and experiences that can help me be better at my job. I also want to make sure that I maintain a healthy work-life balance. I will try to exercise more, spend more time with family and friends, and live up to my responsiblities as a husband.father, coach, and scout leader. I look forward to following the call to make Action=Equity each day at Tech Freire, and to support my students and colleagues any way I can. 2020 has been a rough year for everyone, but there are still many positive and hopefull lessons that we can pull out of it. I am excited to start our 20-21 school year!
