PHS News, Upcoming Events, and Recognition
We don't know what we don't know...
"I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel."
- Maya Angelou
Do you ever recall a time in your life when someone made you feel really good about something? How about the inverse, do you recall a time when someone made you feel really bad? Now the bonus question: Did that individual know they made you feel that way? Whatever your answers were to these questions, the reality is that we all have the best intentions, that is why we are educators. However, we are working with individuals who are constantly in flux with their emotions and perceptions of the world, thus, we can never really know how we are making someone feel. The bottom line is this: we are powerful individuals, and though we can't control someone's perceptions of what we say or do, we can always treat everyone with respect and dignity. I know that the staff of PHS does this with our students day in and day out, regardless of the circumstances, and for that, I thank you!
