Valuable Life Lessons
I spent a lot of time with Mrs. Butterfield learning from my mistakes. I’m so thankful for her because I’m watching some people at my age make the same mistakes that I did when I was 12. I am very grateful I made those mistakes while Mrs. Butterfield was an influence in my life. She ensured that I learned valuable life lessons early so that I was prepared to handle people in the real world, no matter what was said to me. That’s something most people never learn in an education system.
Mrs. Butterfield placed a large emphasis on art. I can say with 100% certainty that if I wasn’t in the school play I would have never realized my passion for acting. Since then, I have been 11 movies, 1 TV show, a Justin Bieber Music video, and I recently got signed with one of the biggest agencies in Los Angeles. Mrs. Butterfield allowed us to dedicate so much time to those plays and looking back that played a huge part in who I am today.
Ultimately, she gave me the tools as a child to live a happy and fulfilling adult life.
