Brian Radtke, former principal at Phoenix Secondary in Fresno Unified School District, holds a special bond with Isaac Daugherity. Isaac was homeless and alone at the age of 9. When he arrived at Phoenix Secondary, he had no reason to trust anyone and every reason not to. But in time, Principal Radtke earned Isaac's trust. With Radtke's help, Isaac is set to graduate in December and attend college next fall.
