Cheryl is a retired teacher from Waterloo, Ontario. Most of her career was spent at Sandhills Public School as an English teacher in the primary French Immersion Program. Becoming a teacher was life-changing! Cheryl was the teacher, but her students also taught her many invaluable lessons. Like her own children, Cheryl observed the students developing friendships. These friendships weren't defined by race, religion, gender, or personalities. Children are usually naturally sociable. For the most part, children have open hearts and make friends without judgment. Cheryl feels that the qualities that she observed in her students and children are admirable qualities that should continue to develop and flourish into adulthood.
