I had my last class at Highlands Juvenile Detention Center this afternoon.
They gave me a piece of art they created - 4 hand-drawn young men in orange jumpsuits in front of a tissue paper background. They also gave me a thank-you note on pink construction paper.
Here are some of the things they wrote to me:
"I've learned a lot from our classes, I hope you find what your looking for."
"You've brought color to our lives. We will always remember you."
"Thank you for coming and teaching us fun things. I will take what you taught me and put it to good use. Good luck in life and have fun in the big city. Again thank you. I had a lot of fun. You made my life better."
The first of many good-byes...
