The Difference a Teacher Can Make
Steve, a twelve-year-old boy with alcoholic parents, was about to be lost forever by the U.S. education system. Remarkably, he could read, yet, he was failing. He had been failing since first grade. Though Steve looked bigger than his age, yet he went unnoticed… until Miss White.
Miss White was a smiling, young, beautiful lady! Steve liked his new teacher; yet, still he failed. He never did his homework. Whenever he was punished for failing to turn in his homework, he felt just terrible! Still, he did not study.
Last week, the entire seventh grade was tested for basic skills. Steve hurried through his tests, and continued to dream of other things. His heart was not in school, but in the woods, where he often stayed alone after school. He was always alone because no one cared. Oddly, Steve never missed a day of school.
One day, Miss White’s impatient voice broke into his daydreams.
“Steve!” Shocked, he turned to look at her.
“Pay attention!” Miss White began to go over the test results for the seventh grade. “You all did pretty well,” she told the class, “except for one boy, and it breaks my heart to tell you this, but...” She hesitated, pinning Steve to his seat with a sharp stare. “The smartest boy in the seventh grade is failing my class!” She just stared at Steve, as the class turned around for a good look. Steve dropped his eyes and carefully examined his fingertips.
“Just try it! ONE WEEK!” He was unmoved.
“You’re smart enough! You’ll see a change!” Nothing changed him.
“Give yourself a chance! Don’t give up on your life!” Nothing.
“Steve! Please! I care about you!”
