After Infant II, I entered the class of Ms. Jill. She was a fantastic teacher. In the class of Ms. Jill, I learned a lot of things. Ms. Jill was a woman who was about six feet tall. She had blonde hair with dark streaks. She was a good teacher and she always had a smile on her face.
The first day I entered her class I was very excited. She told us that a friend of hers said, “I know where Jill is sitting on the bus because of her ‘ssss’ sound.” For me, it was very funny.
I liked being in Ms. Jill’s class from the first day I entered it. In Ms. Jill’s class I was so happy. Sometimes she scolded us, but in a little while she was happy again. When a kid was doing something very bad she would take them to Mr. Mike. One time a student made her cry because he told her something very bad. After lunch she was very sad.
After Standard I, I passed to Standard II and I was still in her class. It was the same as the past year – very fun. To the Standard II students who passed to Standard III, she gave them bracelets and necklaces. I had fun playing bingo in her class. We played bingo every Thursday at the end of the day. When someone won, she gave them a pencil. She gave a pencil to first and second place and to third place she gave them a lollipop.
Then she went to the U.S. to the baby shower of her sister. She stayed there for about 2 months because she was pregnant with her son, Bryce. From that day on, she stopped teaching. After she left, Mildred taught us. Then she came back to Belize and didn’t teach anymore because she started a preschool.
The plane accident happened. She left us here and she went to heaven. I really miss her and Mr. Mike. They were the joy of the school.

Alexis,
I too miss Mr. Mike and Ms. Jill and the kids. They were our everything. We were all very , very lucky to be able to share them. Their spirits live on as I said at the graduation last year. They will continue to look down from heaven and watch over us all, therefore we need to continue to make them proud! I love your writing piece. It's always very nice to hear stories about them. They help me keep them real!
P.S. I almost named my daughter Alexis- I Love your name!
Mr. Mike's sister- Kelly
Alexis - Ms. Kelly, thank you for what you said about my name. I really wanted to be in Mr. Mike's class because my sister said he was a very good teacher and he liked to tell jokes.
