Good evening everyone.
Today was a better day at school. Things are more "normal." Tomorrow will be more emotional, we have our Awards day and a senior video. The video is always wonderful and showcases the seniors from when they were little up to the present. Of course this will be a hard one to watch and I am sure staff and students will be a mess as the video plays. However, I think it will help everyone take another step in the healing process.
Next week is the last week of school. Monday and Tuesday will be easy days of just reviewing for exams. Wednesday through Friday will be exams and we are done for the summer. Of course, as a teacher, I will not be really done. I will still have my Master's classes to work through. Plus, I am starting 2 new courses at the high school next year so I will be doing a lot of lesson planning for those. But, I like planning and putting materials together so I would not really call it work.
In other news, we still have not finished our garden area. We put the ground covering down and the raised beds in place, but we still need to have mulch delivered and put down. I would like to say we will do that this weekend, but I doubt that will happen.
I want to thank you all for listening to me go on about the situation at my school. I really appreciate all of the kind words and thoughts. It really means a lot!
