Fourth- and fifth-grade male
students at Gibson Elementary School did breakfast a little differently Friday
morning.
They took
their trays into the gymnasium, where they were met by men from the community
who volunteered to have breakfast with these students and help get their days
off to a positive start.
It’s an
initiative at Gibson in its second year that asks men from Winston-Salem and
Forsyth County to sit down with a few students and give them encouragement over
breakfast before school starts. It also instills the image and presence of a
positive male role model into their lives.
“I think
today’s going to be a great day, and just because I’m here it’s going to be a
better one,” said Tristan Muhammad, a fifth-grader at Gibson.
