MMCRU High School recently hosted motivational speaker Bobby Jones. He spoke to the students about mental health and his life story on how he got to where he was and how alcohol affected his life and why students should go down that path, which can lead students in a better direction in life.
Some teachers and students had some thoughts on him. Mr. Schuttler said, ”It was very interesting to hear what he said on mental health and had a very good story to tell about his life. Bobby had a great lesson on perseverance.”
Ms. SpieIer said, ”I was really impressed with Bobby’s message and the fact that he didn’t hold anything back. He was extremely honest and related well with the students. His story shows what can happen when we make poor choices, and also what can happen when we set our minds to turning our lives around.”
Darley Carrillo said, ”I thought he was the most relatable motivational speaker we ever had. He really touched all students. He left a really good message. Keep going and to never give up even when life hits you hard just get back up and try harder. We would all love it if he came back. In all, he was amazing.”
Amaiah Poppema said, ”Bobby Jones was very kind hearted towards students and was very inspirational. He talked about how in life things get harder but you have to pull through, he seemed so determined to help students and people that he will even talk to people on social media. I would love to see him come back to the school.”
