DISTINGUISHED EDUCATOR LUKE BENDICK Klein Oak High School

Mr. Bendick’s AP US History class was the first and maybe even last history class I’ve ever liked. Though thanks to Mr. Bendick, I have the causes of the revolutionary war and Ronald Reagan’s biography engrained into my memory, what he taught me and all his students far surpassed the bounds of history. I learned that being successful isn’t merely an amount but amounts to doing what you love and following your passions. From the first day I walked into his class, he’s counseled me through the stresses of school, life, and even school-life. Though no longer his student, he continues to take the time to help me as I prepare to venture out into the world and never fails to remind me of my aptitude for success in anything and everything I do. I know these tasks are far beyond his job description and I really couldn’t be more thankful. I’m so honored to have had Mr. Bendick as a teacher but also as someone who I’ll remember for the rest of my life. I guess you say that having him as a teacher was pretty “historical”.
