Last Day of School

This school year has been full of blessings for me. As it comes to a close I find it incredibly bittersweet. I have met and built relationships with SO many fantastic teachers. They have shown me what it is to teach with God's guidance (and patience!). I am astounded everyday at the sheer brilliance of our students and truly believe that they are capable of so much more than we give them credit for. This year I have been able to get to know the school better so that I am not COMPLETELY lost as afirst year teacher...I actually know what i'm signing up for haha! And this summer I will start setting up my own classroom!!!!

However sweet the sweet side is, there is also some bitter. Firstly, I will no longer get to take a half-day on monday and tuesdays :( and I will have to see the same students everyday! haha Seriously though, there are a couple teachers that I will miss dearly next year. Suzi and Moira, you have been such an inspiration to me. I hope that I can show as much love and patience to my students as you have modeled through your own teachings! I know your new classes in Pennsylvania and Ireland will be blessed to have you! xxx

Here's to a fantastic summer and a promising new school year!
