Current and past parents, students, and colleagues surprise a beloved teacher,and major #Hamilfan, with tickets to see Hamilton and round trip tickets to get to New York to see it. All done with asking for a #ham4ham.
Sophia E Koskinen she's been working at the school since it's open. She was probably the best out of all the teachers, it hasn't really been the same after she retired though, heh
Oh! Hey Kay-Kay!! Do you remember me from your class?? It's Amanda!! Didn't you love that after that Devin asked you to prom?? Omg! How are you doing??
+Amanda “CuteGurl603” Clarke Well seeing as I've never been asked to Prom and I don't know anybody named Devon I'm going to assume that I don't actually know you lol
Kirsten Magtanong We have a performing arts department so we ask the teachers if we could do Hamilton as our spring musical they say no everytime. Its students vs. teacher vote.
Callista Weatherford Some students are disrespectful little gits. When she talked about selflessnes, the students in my school don't know a damn about that. You can't be a teacher just because you want to teach "cinnamon rolls".
My teacher who was a big Hamilton fan (and actually got me into Hamilton) was retiring last year so the people in chorus sang Who Lives, Who Dies, Who Tells Your Story at graduation.
As a former student of Mrs. Leisher, I miss her dearly so. And I cried that day, as well. My friends even commented on my walking into 1st period with tear tracks on my face. My friend actually sent me this, and I'm happy she did. Mrs. Leisher, we all love you! Enjoy Hamilton! -M. Toon
This was heartwarming. Her reaction before getting the tickets was so touching. Teachers are so important and what a wonderful way to show appreciate and thanks. I hope you have a fantastic time.
OMG that was so sweet!! And did anyone else notice how at the beginning the girl said "There are moments where the words don't reach" from QUITE UPTOWN???!!!?!!!?!!!!
Holy crap I was just exploring RU-vid and stumbled across this, this is my school I go here I can't believe someone from mY SCHOOL HAS GOTTEN HAMILTON TICKETS ahh I'm crying;u;
@@Silverado-pq6xe She continued into the 2016 / 17 academic year because she couldn't handle the idea of leaving and went into retirement the following year.
I love this lady! I don't know who she is, but her story makes me feel SO good that I am going to be a teacher! And she also has reminded me that my age has nothing to do with my ability. I'm hoping to be student teaching next fall, and she has re-ignited the fire and passion I have to finish my degree!
Oh my gosh... she was my 7th and 8th grade gifted history teacher! 🥺😭 literally like 19 years go. Wooow 💕❤️ literally awakened a love of history in me! Insane
i wanted to clap when they do oh my god... this is so so so cute?? thank you to everyone involved in this, this was so kind and you made her so happy. this world can be so beautiful sometimes
She is a great speaker. I wish my son a teacher like her. She is right. I had to work right out of school. College was never even used in my home. I finally got some financial aide and started taking some classes. It boosted my confidence. Having parents to support you also helps a whole lot. Very nice video. Thank you for sharing.
FriskyBitz It was mine too! I was there actually, and i love Mrs. Leisher. I'm a freshman now and i miss her so much. Hope Bridgewater is still doing great, although I may be a Warrior now I still can proudly say, GO BOBCATS!
I got distracted for a moment by a the boy int the back with the white shirt with mid sleaves. He kind of looks like Alex's boy friend from Wizard of Waverly Place.
This teacher must have been amazing for getting that much love from the others. Just that she was chill walking in there and seeing all her students from that period-no yelling, screaming, just a -what are you all doing here?- we need more teachers like that. All over the world.
I live in NY and I haven’t had the money to go see this show. I can only imagine the cost of the plane tickets and the tickets to the show. God bless this woman for showing our generation a better future and God bless to those who gave back to her 💙. 👏🏽
I came across this video and I want her as my teacher now. She seems so nice and she seems like the best teacher! She reminds me of one I used to have. But any teacher who likes Hamilton and the color purple must be amazing!
A true teacher is one who touches the heart of every student who has been fortune enough to be their student; evidently Mrs. Leisher is loved beyond measure and has forever changed the lives of countless youngsters. Bless her and I sincerely hope that her retirement is as amazing as she is.
Just a few days ago Jan Leisher passed away from cancer. She was an amazing teacher and always made my middle school days at school worthwhile. We will miss you Mrs. Leisher.
i wish i had a teacher like her. my teachers are completely sick of school already and they don’t care about us. i’ve has wonderful teachers before but i can only hope that i have a teacher like her, someone that truly cares about the world and the wellbeing of students
Wonderful and truly blessed. Lovely to see a teacher so respectful and loving of her students and her students so respectful and loving towards her. I am in awe of her.
This was my eighth grade teacher. When she left, it was heartbreaking. Edit:I just realized it sounds like she was my teacher. I NEVER WENT TO THIS SCHOOL!! SHE WASN'T MY TEACHER!!! But I would've loved her to be my teacher.
This makes me so happy as I am a teacher now to help my students grow and be successful in life. I wish we could do this for one of my favorite teachers. My favorite teacher would never let give up and glad she didn’t. It’s all about our teachers
Beautiful message! I can tell this teacher loves educating students. She has already made a huge difference in the lives of so many people and an untold number of future generations. She loves and cares about people and the love and care she has given to others is being rewarded! Congratulations!💖💖💖👏👏👏💥💥💥🌹🌹🌹
Amelie Mileva Sometimes students are real dickheads to their teachers. My German teacher was fired last year and had to go to a different school because she just yelled at her students. If you want, you can come to my school and try disciplining the twits who go there.
I’m a teacher, like millions of others around the world. I don’t know any teacher that does their job for the sole purpose of receiving appreciation like this. We do it to watch the children we teach make a positive impact on those around them, their families, their friends, their schools, their churches(if they choose to attend), their governments, their countries and the world. The countless hours we spend worrying about students, staying back helping students, and colleagues. So many of my students have found me on Facebook, they are now adults, with careers and families of their own. Many teachers, including me -often have no idea the long term effect that we have on those children. Even the effects on their family members. Hopefully, it’s nearly always a positive one. More than once, I got into trouble (not school policy🙄)for bringing extra lunches to school for those children that came to school without food. Another time, I had a parent of a newborn ask me to bring their daughter (who was in my grade 5/6 grade, drive her home, bc their newborn was unwell. Again -against school policy. I understand why it’s against school policy-but sometimes people run into problems in every day life that policies made decades before don’t take into account. Anyways, all that aside- this gorgeous teacher Mrs Fleisher has clearly put her heart and soul into working with the students/parents/colleagues and wider community. She deserves every accolade she received, and then some. Happy Retirement Mrs Fleisher. Enjoy Hamilton. It was playing in Sydney, Australia recently -and by all accounts, it was absolutely fantastic. You’ll love every second. Onward and Upward. Merry Christmas to the world.
