Mr. Walter Justus is a very kind, down-to-earth kind of man. He’s so full of life and admiration. He has a great sense of humor. He makes me smile and laugh.
You know laughter is good for the soul. Mr. Justus has a love and passion for children. His focus is for children to learn and to take their daily lessions serious because it will surely pay off in the end when they become adults and become a part of the work force or entrepreneurs.
From a parent’s prospective, I found it to be a great experience to be a part of Mr. Justus’ “Math Marathon” a few Saturdays ago from 9 a.m. until noon.
He taught me all over again and I’ve been out of high school since 1980; I found it to be very challenging. I had to put my thinking cap on.
I just would like to commend Mr. Justus on a job well done. I take my cap off to him for taking his Saturday time to come into the Crisp County Middle School to work with our children and to prepare them for the CRCT test that’s coming up soon.
When I’m in the classroom with Mr. Justus and the children, I see the expressions on his face and I hear the motivation in his voice. There’s nothing but mere passion in all that I’m witnessing before my very eyes.
He’s a very special man. I see something so great in hime and rest assured it is a gift from God. He treats all the children the same. He does not see race or gender. His focus is for each child to do his very best, and above all, it is for them to learn.
I can truly say his dream is for each child to be all he or she can be. I wish the very best for Mr. Justus. He is an angel from heaven. Thank you so much for caring.
This is from all the parents from the “Math Marathon” class. We love you a lot. God bless you.
Also, some parents took up a donation to show their appreciation for all he does. Mr. Justus did not accept the donation fromthe parents. He says he does this from the heart.
He is determined to do God’s will for the children. He does not take pay from the school. This is what he does for the community.
You can never put a price on God’s work. He is an example to all mankind.
Parents who donated to Mr. Justus were Johnny Woodall, Shirley McDaniel, Tina McCarty, Sarah Williamson, Janice Sales, Patricia Coley, Fredrick Smith, Arlene Mason, and Tonya Ford.
