A difficult day, indeed...
This class has been knock-your-socks-off amazing. They let me take so many risks. We thought outside the box. Heck, half the time, we got rid of the box and that was a BLAST!!!! This class is filled with eager learners, risk takers, and compassionate leaders. Seriously.
I have a sad heart, because I'm going to miss these kiddos so much. I made them promise to come back and visit me next year! I will soon be writing them personal notes of thanks and mailing them. I needed some time to reflect on the year and think about the message I want to send to each of them. I'm so proud of the leaders they have become. They took a lot of tests, and I guess i could talk about how thrilled I am with their scores, but that is less important to me. It's the character of this class that blows me away. They are a team and they look out for each other. There is no bullying in our room - we sink or swim together. They believed it and lived it.
