Mr. Haywood is great with students. One of his greatest success stories was when someone came up to him and said, "I would like thank you for teaching me and trying to keep me out of trouble. I was not a very good student back then, but you never gave up on me and that has made me into the person that I am today." This person went on to tell him that Mr. Haywood inspired him to do better in life and that he remembered him telling students to apply to better themselves and become the best person that they can become. .
