if it wasn’t for Mr.Diaz giving me the push I needed I wouldn’t have passed, I’m so much more than grateful, I wouldn’t ask for anyone else, he talked to me, my mom, told us what I can do to improve and I did just that, some days I felt like giving up but Mr.Diaz was there telling me the words I needed to hear, he has sent me a list of assignments that I had to completed, I got comfortable with Mr.Diaz in such a short amount of time, I’m so grateful that he always took the time out of his day to make sure I was okay or how my school work was coming & he told me he would always be there, no matter what time I texted or called he would always respond, I’m moving to the next grade all thanks to Mr.Diaz.” – Emeddie T Rodriguez
