Mr. Cummins’ ability to connect with individual students is absolutely unmatched. He matches an appropriate energy with each student he interacts with that only makes them feel more connected with their class and themselves. He makes being a part of his art classes feel like you’re a part of a community of equal minds. He is insightful, intelligent, and possessive of a wealth of empathy that shines in every relationship he develops with his students.
I aim to have left a positive and warm mark on everyone I’ve met. Every interaction I’ve had with other students, teachers, and my friends, has been with the goal of making others feel as though they have a reason to feel comfortable here and within themselves. I hope that I’ve given everyone I met during high school encouragement to carry themselves with the unrelenting shine that we all deserve to walk with.
