400 students turn up to cancer-stricken teacher's house to sing for him

Ben Ellis has been teaching Latin and Bible Studies at Nashville’s Christ Presbyterian Academy since 2008. 

For the last year, he has been battling an aggressive form of cancer and while he had continued to teach through his chemotherapy and radiation treatments, last week he finished up work.

Last Wednesday, he was having a bad morning after getting some tough news the night before, said Nate Morrow, the school’s headmaster.
