"Stand and Deliver" Fights Cancer 

"You don't count how many times you are in the floor, you count how many times you get up." Jaime Escalante. Always remember 2018

Great Educator, who never gave up and finished strong to the end.

Rest in Peace Jaime. We will always remember you!

Oh how is WISH I WISH I HAD A Teacher like him when I was in high school. His passion of teaching others is so wonderful and he KNEW ANYONE can do it! RIP Jaime...you'll always be remembered!

This man was fighting cancer and had to worry about the bills. Jesus Christ some things really don't change. RIP to this legend

This is the teacher I wish I had

He shall never be forgotten! 2018.

We need so many teachers like this wonderful man today, it's not even funny!

Truly an incredible human being and yes we are proud he was latino(Bolivian). He is our pride and he has proven that our inner city kids are able to be successful! May God Bless your soul Prof. Escalante. May God bring peace to his beloved family.

He passed away 26 days after this video =/

You will live forever in my heart! God bless you....Rest In Peace Teacher.

RIP, may this man be remembered forever.

one of my all time fav movies

stand and deliver. best movie ever.

Jaime! What a wonderful human being. I wish we had a cure for cancer. I also wish we had a cure for all of the torment problems on this planet. Human beings, nice ones, are so beautiful. R.I.P. Mr. Escalante. I am a huge fan of yours.

One of the best stories ever. You can make it no matter who you are. i thought about this film when i was in school. Seen it again and again.

i watched this movie last night for the first time since it came out

omg i was so crying in this vid i cant believe this great man had so much faith in some no good kids and tried so hard to proove everyone wrong and accualy succeded

He's deserved to be posthumously presented with the Presidential Medal of Freedom. It's been due.

Good night el gran Profesor Boliviano, travel well...Descanse en Paz. Gracias por tu grand ejemplo a seguir. Que viva la educacion y el Calculus.

I will think of him when I visit La Paz again next year.

Truly a super hero

God always bless people like him that are selfish and want to help others. He was a great human being. Gracias 🙏🏼 Jaime.

A true motivator....I love that movie too. VIVA Jaime..

It certainly is. Jamie was such a great man. I'm very pleased with what he did to help hall of his students prepare for whatever they chose to do after graduating from high school. And I know he'll always live in our memory. RIP, Jamie.

R.I.P Mr. Escalante! If this great, great man and his students aren't proof that you can succeed in life, regardless of who you are and where you come from, I don't know who or what is! Oh, how our schools would be so much better if we had many more teachers like Mr. Escalante! You know, ones who actually cared about their students!

19K and all of the lives he helped 😔😔 as a teacher’s husband I get to see how we really don’t care about our kids education. On the day of PTC the absence is ridiculous.

Very inspirational story

I wish i had that kind of teacher in my school

#Ganas

great video..that's the Bolivian's Spirit..Reach our goals..any place we are..㋡

just finished watching the movie today with my english class and i lued it! wow he died! i cant believe it!

God Bless this Man! He made them believe, He made a difference! "You have to have Ganas = Desire." RIP Mr. Escalante.

wow great teacher this made me cry =[

After the film's release, He taught at Hiram Johnson High in Sacramento, CA

Awesome man.. A REAL role model for teachers and human beings world wide. RIP Kimo!

Hats off to this wonderful human being!

He such a legend and god bless his effort and opening doors for a lot of ppl who didn’t think they had it! But they did! RIP Don Jamie🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

I have so munch respect for this guy and all the great things be has done

Adios GRAN MAESTRO!!! so many, many memories....RIP. ...

I hope he gets over the struggle

What a man with such character and determination*

Respect!

God bless him

REst in heavenly peace to a good man...

Ohhhh.... How much I would have liked Mr Escalante to have been my teacher... 🙍🏻‍♂️🙇🏻‍♂️😔☹️😞 We saw the movie in my algebra class in highschool back in the late 80s....

corn and potatoes? what happened to the lomo montado and pique a lo macho? rest in peace sir.

Omg he’s it man

my role model

Haven't seen this but I will now. Really like Edward. Sad that Jaime past in march 2010.

VIVA!!!!!

Every abuelo has that jacket. My grandpa wore one similar like that everyday and looked good

2019?

My point.. Bad shit always happens to good people

That movie brought me here

❤️

R.I.P );

The real MVP

Why is there a thumbs down ? WHY ????????

Kimo era grande.ayudando a los chavos de la banda

I wish she was my teacher 😍erica

I always wanted him to be my teacher because my teachers didn't care at all

True stries like stand and deliver makes me believe in angels real angels and they dont even know they are angels

if i had teachers like Mr. Escalante i wound't of dropped out ! teachers of today are bullshit >

He would have done greater if he had prepared them for heaven.

Chicanos aren't burros because when placed in the correct environment and given the right motivation, we can be become thoroughbreds. However, as Mr. Escalante, has showned the world, the student needs to have the desire (Ganas) to become successful.

Don't let the word calculus intimidate you

wait he is gay?

😊 legends dont die. They are like energy 💪😎 just transfers

Im a teacher. Im gonna be like kimo! Con ganas cabrones!

my role model
