I have to say that this situation is happening all too often. People who stand out and do good for others are exposing the ones who only care about advancement of their own agendas and have to destroy anything good. What they do not understand is that they are hurting themselves as well as everyone else. The effect Miss Annabella has on her students is clear. They know the honesty of their teacher. Since Mr. Hammerschmidt has no real value in life, he has to take from others. His attempt to destroy good around him is only seen by a few people who know that the other people at the school will not be able to see it. There are value destroyers all around us and we need to be vigilant and ready to stand for what we believe in and not waiver.
