Gloria Wynne Pollock

I'm still inspired by Ms. Pollock's philosophy of teaching and her love for her students. She has left a legacy in the way that I teach and interact with my students. As another insight into her character, once I was mad at my sister and some things she had said. I told Mspollock that I wished I could come up with a good comeback. Her response, " Why? That just brings you down to her level? That's just too much negativity. You want to be better than that. Just show kindness. That will show...

I'm saddened to learn of Ms. Pollock's passing. She was an amazing teacher with so much love and compassion for her students that my daughter, Aleya, considered her a second mom. Her support and encouragement changed my family's lives; my daughter became a successful student and I became a successful teacher. We were blessed to have known her and will always remember her fondly. My condolences to her family.
