YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Lynette Stant’s story is about her love of teaching. She works at the Salt River Elementary School in the Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community, which is east of Phoenix. When she was in second grade, Stant taught her grandmother to write her own name, Mary, so she could sign her checks to cash them instead of using her fingerprint as a signature.

Her grandmother grew up on the Navajo Reservation, which spans northern Arizona and New Mexico, and only spoke Diné.

It also touches on a breakthrough she had with a troubled student after she started spending her lunch time with him. In both instances, Stant said she found her joy by supporting them through their evolution.
