Don’t you just LOVE a fresh start?
I know I do, and that’s just what we all get today…a chance to start over. This is the day to reflect on the first semester and set some goals for the new one. Write down what you’d like to see accomplished by the end of the school year, and then do something each day that takes you closer to reaching those goals. You can do what you set your mind to do. I believe in you!

Classroom Highlights – Senior Collages & Autobiographies
I can’t tell you how much I have enjoyed listening to you reveal your identities by sharing your autobiographies and collages with our class. Before this assignment, I would not have known that sitting in my class is a dancer, a future MP, a native Californian, a sushi lover, a Michigan fan, a gifted Bridges student, a snake owner, a cancer survivor, an award-winning lacrosse player, a twin, a double angel, a Godfather fan, a nail artist, an army brat, and a wrestler. You each bring something unique to our class. Thanks for sharing yourselves with me.
