Enjoy your summer vacation!

  I can't believe the school year is already over.  This has been such a great year! As I write this I have been reflecting on all the wonderful things we did this year.  As a teacher it is such a privilege to watch the students change and grow.  Sometimes this happens slowly over a long period of time and sometimes it happens in quick powerful bursts.  But, of all the accomplishments the student's have made this year, I am so proud of their writing projects.  If you have not already done so, PLEASE read your student's essay.  I was blown away by the maturity of writing as well as the ideas and concepts the students addressed.  The children spent hours  researching, writing and editing.  These truly are a masterpiece!
  Currently, I am at a conference for Gifted and Talented picking up lots of new ideas to use with the students in our program next year.  Like the kids, each year we get better and better.

  Have a wonderful summer!

  Best wishes to our graduating 8th Graders!  We will miss you all and wish you the best as you begin the next phase of your life.
