Thanksgiving for Volunteer Teachers

The School for the Deaf of LSU Ozamiz is very thankful to the following volunteer teachers who shared their time and talent to the Deaf Lasallians: Mr. Lito Real - Chemistry. Mr. Jonathan Molina - Trigonometry. Mr. Rodney Decena - Algebra. Ms. Razel Bayron - Geometry. Ms. Russell Mejorada - Science and Biology and to Ma'am Sarah Osorio Talibong - Sign Language Interpreter. Message to volunteer teachers The measure of our success is not what we have become or whom we have become but what the Deaf students have become because of you volunteer teachers who shared your time and talent for the deaf students to learn in the respective subject you are teaching. “Teaching the Deaf by all means is my passion”. May this motto of mine radiates in you as you are starting to get yourselves be involved in the Deaf community. The experiences we reciprocated will forever be remembered in the hearts and memories of the deaf students we served. Proverbs 19:17 says he who is kind to the poor lends to the Lord, and He will reward him for what he has done. Truly, we will be rewarded for teaching the less fortunate students especially the Deaf. We will never know when will that be and how will it happen, only God knows. The School for the Deaf has limited resources for this purpose. True enough, they made voluntary daily contributions since January just to come up with this simple thanksgiving. This is our simple way of saying thank you to you all teachers for being part of this wonderful experience to be involved in the Deaf community. May this school year will not be the end of our journey in teaching minds, touching hearts, and transforming the lives of our dearly beloved Deaf students. I would like to end by saying that “a person’s best asset is not his/her head full of knowledge, rather a heart that cares, an ear that listens, and most of all a hand willing to help. On behalf of the Deaf students, thank you and God bless you all. Sarah O. Talibong Vice-Principal
