MEMORY OF MR. HALL
I am not to sure if you'll remember me, but I sure do remember you very well. I was in your Spanish II class as a freshman transferring from Misawa Jr/Sr High in Japan. You administered a "special" test for me to receive credit for my Spanish I class in Japan so that I could take your Spanish II class as a ninth grader. This was in 1986 approximately--(age and children have worn my memory down:) I was a volleyball player and cheerleader that year for the basketball team. Jennifer Jordan and I used to sit in your class and get in trouble for passing notes :)
I just wanted to say hello to you and thank you for doing all that you could for me to ensure I would receive credit for a class that wasn't even offered to students at your school. I really helped me in the long run to ensure I had the credits I needed for foreign languages to get into college as an honors student. You always went that extra mile for your students and it didn't go unnoticed.
Thank your for all your hard work and dedication. Hope this finds you in the best of spirits with a smile on your face.
WHAT I AM DOING NOW
I graduated from Health Careers High School in 1989 and went onto Baylor University for a few years. I decided to take a few semesters off to get a break from my education as I was a pre-med major and knew I had a long road ahead of me. Of course, lesson learned, and now I am back in school as a 31 year old mother of two beautiful girls, Mikayla 6, and Megan 3. I am finishing up my prerequisites for PA school. I have been married for 8 years. I live in Round Rock, TX, where my husband works for Dell.
