No one likes a bully, and school bullies can be especially brutal. That’s exactly what Matthew of Winlock Miller Elementary School in Winlock, Washington, had to deal with every day, and he couldn’t take it anymore. The constant teasing he faced on a daily basis made him never want to come to class again.
Luckily, Matthew had an amazing teacher to help him out. Not only did his teacher get the bullying to stop, but she went above and beyond to make Matthew feel welcome.
This is Matthew. After shaving his hair off, students began to make fun of a bald spot on his head, which caused him great anguish.
Tori Nelson, Matthew’s teacher, wanted the bullying to stop immediately. Matthew refused to come to class and remove his hat, so Ms. Nelson let Matthew shave her head in exchange for his attendance.
Matthew took Ms. Nelson up on her offer. Now nobody can make fun of him, because his awesome teacher has the same haircut!
Watch the entire story below to see just how great Ms. Nelson really is.

Talk about accommodating! Ms. Nelson went beyond the call of duty to make Matthew feel okay about coming into class without a hat. We need more teachers in the world like Ms. Nelson, who would do anything for a student in need.
