Tere Ruff, Academic Chair

”As a former student of J. H. Rose High School, my life was deeply impacted by the speech you delivered at our Academic Banquet. Standing in front of my peers and myself was the most dynamic speaker I had ever heard during my four years at J. H. Rose High School. With your energy and positive outlook, you held our attention by relating stories and directly involving the audience.

I have learned that having a positive outlook on life is what makes life’s wonderful times enjoyable and life’s difficult times bearable.

From the positive reaction I saw to your speech, I am sure that my peers will remember the same message and put it top work in their lives as well. I am forever grateful to you for making me aware of the influence of words and thoughts."
