Here's a little more about this reconnecting thing...
One of the former students whom I contacted, messaged back almost immediately how good it was to hear from me and then remarked on the timing of it because he was currently doing a placement at Perth Road school. Not only that, he went on to say that the reason he was going into educating young children was because of the example of the male teachers he had while a student at Perth Road, including me! (There were others, too.)
It's a rare, and very special privilege, to receive such feedback. What a great young man for making me aware of this. I appreciate it more than he knows. Someday, I hope one of his former students says the same thing to him.
