I don't know about everyone else, but I'm pretty tired of only seeing horrific images of teenagers gone wild in various regions around the United States. The newspapers are full of schools taking action and creating policies to protect students from those who would seek to harm them. With all of the terrible images being shown about teenagers it is enough to make a person conclude that there is nothing decent, nice or promising about today's youth. This student, this poem, this child should remind us all how very special and very wonderful our students, our children, our future is in Baker County. ~Melody Hood~
