Yes, Virginia, There is A School That Shows Love and Caring

When fall is in the air it means FOOTBALL and homecoming.  My niece, Jacqueline, and her husband, Ryan, teach at Dan River High School in southern Virginia.  This year the school voted for a special young man to crowned homecoming king.  His name is PJ Patterson.  At first PJ's name did not appear on the ballot---that didn't stop the seniors at this caring school.  They WROTE PJs name on the ballot!   It is my understanding that PJ won by a landslide.  Take a look at this link:

I'm especially proud of my niece, Jacqueline, who teaches students with special needs.  She was wonderful to my brother, Mark, and I'll never forget that.  Thanks for sharing this story, Jacqueline.
