Graduation is Around the Corner


Many have asked about Cameron's Graduation.  Invitations will go out later this week, so be on the look-out.  Cameron is still pursuing a career in either law enforcement or fire fighting.  After he graduates, he plans to attend a local college for a degree in either field.  While attending college, he plans to apply for the cadet program or basics in a fire department.  Cam is passionate about serving others, and he continues to look for career opportunities that will support his calling.

Cameron was able to practice his long awaited career, well kind of.  Cameron came into my classroom during an immigration lesson.  My third graders were reenacting the movement through Ellis Island.  A close friend allowed Cam to borrow his uniform for the reenactment.  Cameron helped organize lines, keep the crowd in order, and tap the shoulder of those who did not make the health requirements (93 students.)  Cameron received raving reviews from everyone in attendance...he even received compliments from the Principal! 

I have always known Cameron was responsible and goal driven, but it was warming to hear so many educated people who found him refreshing and impressive to talk with.  Within the next month, he plans to schedule a few ride a longs with two different departments (friends have volunteered to take him) in hopes to find out more about the duties he would perform.  Cameron at a young age knew that he wanted to serve his community, and he is still determined to find a way to do so!
