Additional comments:

As I walked all our buildings today, I was stopped over and over again. Shadrack was the best keynote speaker we have ever had. He made me cry, think, reflect, etc. I could go on and on but he is the best speaker and we are asking him back to meet with our students and maybe even parents.
