What's in a name? This is an expression we've all heard before, but what's the answer? Are names important? In this fourth video of my "What I've Learned" series, I share two of my experiences, one from a teacher's perspective and one from an administrator's point of view. Through these short stories, you'll see that a person's name isn't just important, it's powerful. If you haven't yet watched the first three videos in the series, you can do so by visiting the "What I've Learned" page. If you've already seen them, I welcome your feedback.

That was great, Brent! Your first story had me in tears as I have been there, done that!

I went back to visit my elementary school after college and found a few teachers that taught me were still teaching there. And one of the school counselors still remember my name and my guardian's name and it has been almost 20 years. It just made my day!
