The Holidays

As educators, many of us look forward to the longer weekend or extra days off.  It's a time to refresh and refuel and gives us just that extra boost to make it through another few weeks.

But something I'm often reminded of is how not all of our students feel the same way.  This next week is our first of 2 four day weeks.  I have already had several students ask me if we have to have those days off.  If they can come to school instead.

It breaks my heart to remember that not every child we serve goes home to a loving home. But I'm also encouraged by the simple fact that they want to be here. That you all have worked to build an environment that students don't want to leave.

This time of year we can easily lose sight of the impact we're making. But I know each of you are leaving your imprint on this children's hearts.

Big shout out to Mrs. Argueta for all her hard work in organizing and leading STAAR testing this week! We had a successful first round! It's not an easy task and we are so thankful for the work that Mrs. Argueta does.

Also a shout out to Mr. Haliburton for all the extra work and time he (and his helpers) put in to bring us and our students special events that are so amazing.

In Closing...

We all have to remember that every action we take and every word we choose will leave an impression. I hope one day we all get to experience something as heartwarming as the video below.
