In October, a very powerful speaker came to JMS. That speaker was Mr. John Halligan. He came to tell his son’s story and to inform us about what it felt like to lose someone to suicide. Mr. Halligan talked to the whole middle school and told Ryan’s powerful and inspiring story. After listening to Mr. Halligan, some of the students were in tears. We could tell that every single person who sat down was inspired and would be a better person after hearing his story. JMS had a great encounter with John Halligan, a man who has been to numerous schools and inspired so many people. Ryan’s story was very emotional and it made kids more aware about bullying and suicide. After Mr. Halligan spoke, he was given a standing ovation. This man left a special message to all the students of JMS. Thank you, Mr. Halligan for your time coming to JMS and speaking to all the students. You can learn more at Mr. Halligan’s website at http://www.ryanpatrickhalligan.org/ .
