I have the best history teacher in my entire school
I'm sitting here in my history class on one of the school computers, and I've realized that I am a very lucky guy. My history teacher, Mr. Copeland, is one of the few adults at the school who actually treats me like I'm somewhat self-reliant and intelligent. He's also one of the few people I've met who loves history just as much, if not more, than I do. He's also one of the most intelligent people I've ever met. Anyway, right now in class, the seniors in my class are at a town hall meeting, and Cope is playing us this series of short films called "Subway Stories." Most teachers I've had, in this situation, would just forge on ahead with the lesson plan and damn the seniors. Not Copeland. Not only does he slow us down temporarily to help the seniors, he plays an entertaining series of films for us. I'm not sure where I'm goin' with this, so I'll end it here. In all likelihood, more to come.

We are very fortunate to have Mr.Copeland as our history teacher. I rember seeing Mr.Copeland at his old room (now room that belongs to Ms.Gil). During my freshmen year at SOF. I saw Mr.Copeland as a teacher that I really wanted to have, unfortunetly on the beginning of my sophmore year I had another great teacher name Hiro Shinohara. Well, I didn't have Mr.Copland as my teacher from the beginning but an ususual turn of events (If you can flash back 2 years ago) lead me to having Mr.Copeland as a history teacher. Now that I am a senior I am reluctant to have one of the greatest teacher for the one last time, as a student. You are very lucky, Mitchell. You can have one full year with the great history teacher and Mr.Copeland.
