“I entered the school in the early 1980s, the school was not as big then as you would imagine. For all the time I spent, here I remember the great teachers that I had. Even though life then was a bit more challenging than now, our teachers were dedicated to us. We would not be what we are today if it were not for our teachers. I would like to recognize our teachers who, through those years, stuck with us and believed in us.”
