“In order to be a mentor, and an effective one, one must care. You must care. You don’t have to know how many square miles are in Idaho, you don’t need to know what is the chemical makeup of chemistry, or of blood or water. Know what you know and care about the person, care…

Things I wish my middle-schoolers knew…

Posted on January 25, 2016 by Jaimie
