It's incredible how one person's act of kindness can have such a profound impact on a community. Sean Cummings's dedication to honoring his late wife Cathy by erasing school lunch debt in Oklahoma is truly inspiring. Recently Mr. Cummings stopped by Arnett Schools to help with outstanding lunch bills for Arnett students! His gesture not only alleviates financial burdens for students and their families but also spreads a message of compassion and generosity. It's wonderful to see individuals like Mr. Cummings making a tangible difference in the lives of others. Thank you, Mr. Cummings!

He makes it his mission to not only educate his classes about history and geography, but also about going out into the world and being good, productive citizens. Mr. Long establishes a relationship with his students that he can have the fun, bantering talks with them, but also that he can have the harder, life lesson conversations with them.
