she says, "because 1 think I'm patient with children."
While granting an interview so smoothly and comfortably
that you'd think she's been talking to newspaper
people all her life, LaShonda says she became interested
in teaching by watching her own teachers at work.
A good teacher, says the South Fork Elementary School:
4th-grader, "should take a little time with her children
for fun in addition to work. She also does things to malCe .
them learn more easily."
LaShonda, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. William H.
Hunt of 450 Creekway Drive, and a student in Pat
Wynn's Gifted and Talented class at South Fork, has not
closed her career options, however; she's also very in?t*r?tB<Un

That ambition was stirred, LaShonda says, by her
mother's interest in CPR.
"My mother took a CPR class and I saw her practicing
one day," LaShonda says. "It interested me."
No doubt two of LaShonda's most valuable assets,
whatever career she chooses, will be her sense of priority
ana ner desire to do things right. As far as priorities are
concerned, LaShonda says she has many interests, but
knows which come first.
