No, you are no Billy Joel (there's only one), but like him, you have the opportunity to help a kid make a memory today. Better than Billy Joel, you have the opportunity to help many kids make memories everyday. What memories will you help to make? Memories that encourage or discourage? Memories that inspire or deflate? Memories that help young people understand their potential? Memories that offer eternal hope?
Memories are powerful. They shape our self-image. Be encouraged to be a leader that makes memories everyday. Your students will never forget them.
If you feel so inclined, please share ways that you are helping your students make memories that they will carry with them for a lifetime. Others, including me, would benefit. Though I no longer lead a school, I have five at home who will be positively impacted.
