WATCH: America’s Coolest Teacher Throws Down 40 Personalized Handshakes for Each of His Students

Amidst the sea of students bustling through the hallways, it’s easy to blend in with the crowd. But one 5th grade teacher from North Carolina is on a mission to change that.

Barry White Jr. wanted to make his students feel extra special, so he decided to create a personalized handshake for each and EVERY one of them.

What an amazing way to engage your students and show them you care about them as individuals!
