Mrs. Graczyk has a student teacher this year his name is Mr.Rodriguez. He is really helpful,kind and always helps people even if they aren’t his students. 

 Mr.Rodriguez was a baseball and hockey coach for 6 years, He realized that he enjoyed working with teenagers. So he decided to become a paraprofessional at Lincoln Middle School. Soon he found that he also enjoyed helping than learning. So, after a few years, he decided to make a full choice and become a teacher. He loved helping students who needed an extra hand, it made him feel good about himself. He enjoys watching his students\not students grow up and help them not only with academics, but life navigation as well. Mr.Rodriguez went to 2 colleges, 1 was Rock Valley College and the other one was National Louis University. He is still at National Louis University, he will graduate soon. Mr. Rodriguez is not my student teacher but I love seeing him and checking up with him on my grades and everything, he tries to help you out as much as he can. I can’t wait to see him reach his goals and become a teacher here at Jefferson or any other school and works at. If you wanna meet him or ask him questions about the college Go to room 241 on he 2nd floor.
