Mrs. Miles was my child's fifth grade teacher. She was compassionate and understanding, and she made a difference, not only in my child's life, but in mine, too. I was an overwhelmed single Mom, and Mrs. Miles offered help and support in ways that went way beyond anything I would have expected. She has my eternal gratitude. She truly enriched both our lives and will forever live in my heart.
