I am writing to submit a story about a local angel by
the name of Jennifer McLarty of Marietta.
Amidst the chaos and
confusion in the world due to
COVID-19, there are angels
among us, independently
administering acts of kindness
and selflessness to put smiles on
the faces of local high school
seniors.
After receiving the news that
her senior math class at Walton
High School in east Cobb opted
Jennifer McLarty
to accept their final grades from March 1, Mrs. McLarty
knew she would not see her students again in a class
setting.
She also knew her senior class was horribly
disappointed that they would not be afforded a senior
graduation, prom or any of the senior festivities they all
worked so hard for. Although there was nothing she could
do about that, she knew she had to do something to put a
smile on her senior math class’ face. Something to let them
know their hard work was not in vein, she loves them
dearly and they will be missed.
Mrs. McLarty drove four hours total to each and every
one of her students homes to draw inspirational and
congratulatory messages on the ground in colorful chalk.
The students witnessed Mrs. McLarty, unexpectedly
outside their homes, expressing how proud she was of
them, singing her praises to them.
Parents and students watched in tears, appreciating her
efforts and the level of love she has for her students to
drive to every single home, thanking her and loving her at
six feet of distance.
With the constant reminder of the weight of the world
at this time with COVID-19, stories like this remind us
that humanity is not lost. And even the smallest acts of
kindness can have the biggest impact.
