Who is Stacey Bess?

Stacey Bess started her first teaching job at a homeless shelter in a small shed on Salt Lake City's near west side. The students she was teaching were of all ages and of all grades. Stacey faced a lot of difficulties, but knew she was meant to be there. She wrote a book called "Nobody Don't Love Nobody", a story of her first teaching job. "Beyond the Blackboard", was a movie based on Stacey's story. I can't imagine being in Stacey's shoes when she first started her job teaching at the homeless shelter. I don't think I would have been able to handle it like she did. I truly admire her for her strength and willpower.
