跑步去看你——寫完作業(yè)了沒？

A Georgia teacher who says he misses his students after not seeing them for nearly two months is now in the process of running more than 50 miles to visit them outside their homes.

喬治亞州的一名教師說，他有近兩個月沒見到學(xué)生了，非常想念他們。現(xiàn)在，他正在跑50多英里到學(xué)生的家外看望他們。

Bill McAllister, a faculty member at Big Shanty Intermediate School in Kennesaw, last taught class on March 16 before the coronavirus outbreak brought an early end to in-person learning in his district this academic year. He since has mapped out a route and is running six to eight miles per day to offer encouragement to each of his students.

比爾·麥卡利斯特(Bill McAllister)是肯尼索大棚中學(xué)(Big Shanty Intermediate School)的一名教師，他最后一次上課是在3月16日，當(dāng)時冠狀病毒爆發(fā)導(dǎo)致本學(xué)年他所在的學(xué)區(qū)提前結(jié)束了面對面學(xué)習(xí)。從那以后，他制定了路線，每天跑6到8英里，以鼓勵他的每一個學(xué)生。

“I knew my kids were at home and they were missing school and everybody else and I thought well why don’t I run through their neighborhoods and see them, give them a smile, pick up their day a little bit,” McAllister told Fox 5 Atlanta.

“我知道我的孩子們都在家里，他們錯過了學(xué)校和其他所有人，所以我想為什么我不跑到他們的社區(qū)去看看他們，給他們一個微笑，讓他們振作起來呢，”麥卡利斯特接受采訪時表示。

McAllister says he is donating money for each mile he runs to MUST Ministries, a local volunteer group that helps those in need with meals, clothing, housing and other items.

麥卡利斯特說，他每跑一英里，就會向當(dāng)?shù)刂驹附M織MUST Ministries捐款。該組織幫助那些需要幫助的人提供食物、衣服、住房和其他物品。

“I have been thinking about all of you and worrying about all of you. And getting to see you makes me a little bit calmer and a whole lot more happy,” McAllister was observed telling one of his students – Mia Strickland — during a run. “You have a great summer and we will see you in fifth grade.”

“我一直在想你們，擔(dān)心你們所有人。”有人注意到麥卡利斯特在跑步時對他的一個學(xué)生米婭·斯特里克蘭說:“我很高興能見到你。能見到你讓我平靜了一點，也開心了很多。”“你暑假過得很愉快，我們五年級見。”

Strickland later told Fox 5 Atlanta her teacher’s visit was “pretty awesome,” as “just the other day I was thinking about him.”

斯特里克蘭后來接受記者采訪時說，她的老師來訪“非常棒”，因為“就在幾天前，我還在想他。”

For those who are not home, McAllister leaves notes on their mailboxes.

對于那些不在家的人，麥卡利斯特會在他們的郵箱上留下便條。

“Sorry I missed you, hope you are doing well,” one of the notes read.

其中一張紙條上寫著：“對不起，我想你了，希望你一切都好。”。
