    What colors

    I want to be a high school teacher because I would really like to teach kids some stuff I know and help them with things they need to be helped with in there lives and I would really like to get to know kids that I haven't met and would like to get to know them. In my room I would have many signs with bright colors such as hot pink, lime green, neon purple, because those colors stand out the most.
