Goodbye... See you in January!

Wow it’s crazy to think this semester’s almost over. This past week turned out to be my last week at Jackson, well at least until next semester. I spent everyday at the school. It was a bittersweet feeling. I love being there, but it’s time for me to settle down and focus on my grades. I mean this is my last time taking finals- that sentence alone makes my heart jump around filled with joy!

Yesterday brought many schools around the district to Jackson High School for their speech and debate tournament. Mrs. Mann is the head speech coach at the school. Mrs. Kathy Patron, my high school speech coach, is the reason I perused teaching. I owe the past three years of college and my future to speech. Anyways, after taking the dreaded Praxis II exam, I raced over to the school to see how the kids were doing. Turns out, just like the football game, Jackson beat Perry. I’m definitely a Perry girl at heart, but I’m extremely happy for the Jackson kids and, of course, the hard-working Mrs. Mann.

These are some final pictures from the fall semester. I’ll miss the kids, but I know I’ll be seeing them a lot next semester. I thought I would give them a month off from seeing Miss Chambers!
