End of Year -- A thank you and final wish

This is our final Teaching Tip of the year, and we first would like to thank you for your dedication to students and learning, your passion for your subject, and your willingness to change and grow in our challenging and highly rewarding profession.  We especially want to thank those of you who responded to us with a much-appreciated comment, suggestion, or note.  Special shout-outs to Ken Loomis, Dale Lehman, Kelly Allison, Tracy Krause, Malinda Shirley, Kathryn Strojan, Hillary Ledford, Stella Patrick, Candi Lommen, Marissa Morelock, Tarie Sloan, Nancy Adamson, Dale Heinbigner, and and anyone we missed.


As English teachers (always and forever, regardless of current job title), Lara and I must end with a literary quote:

“And so with the sunshine and the great bursts of leaves growing on the trees, just as things grow in fast movies, I had that familiar conviction that life was beginning over again with the summer.”                                                                                                                                                                                              
—F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby

May your life begin again on June 17, and may you know how very much respect, admiration, and gratitude we bear toward the best secondary teachers in the state!


Lara and Brooke
