Happy Thursday friends! Today I am excited to share a reel about the final reveal of my classroom! You can find it HERE!
Happy Monday friends! I have been receiving so many questions about how teaching is finishing up for this first year and I am truly so humbled by these questions. Thank you so much for your continued interest in this area of my life.
It's been a whirlwind here at the end as the seniors finished their last day of classes on May 14th (read my thoughts HERE), classes for my sophomores finished on Friday, and we had graduation on Saturday! You can see all of the stories of graduation by clicking HERE on the graduation stories!
After graduation was a reception (you can find those stories and pictures HERE) and then I was sweetly invited to join Deborah's family and friends for a lovely dinner and then headed to Harley's house for an open house. It was a full day of love and celebrating these people that I love so very much.
As this school year comes to a close I look forward to sharing more with y'all about some upcoming changes and exciting news. In the meantime thank you so much for your continued prayers and your constant love and support, especially in this week ahead as we approach the 2nd anniversary of losing my precious daddy.
I hope you have a wonderful day friends!
From the moment that I stepped into this room I felt like it was holy ground. The first thing I did was take a moment to pray with tears at where I was after nearly a decade of fighting for my life. I prayed that this year...the year of returning to teaching and seeing a dream fulfilled (after 8 years away due to my extreme fight for my health and life against Advanced Late Stage Lyme Disease and Cancer) would be an incredibly special year.....
What I didn't know was just how special it would be which is all because of the students I spend life with each day...
I have learned in new and deep ways that everyone needs a sacred place where our roots can grow deep and where we feel like we have a refuge (or a crying closet haha). Laughter, deep conversations, and life have happened here and it has been humbling, amazing, and beyond incredible to experience this year together. I love you guys deeply. Thank you for making F112 an incredibly sacred place that I love coming to everyday.
All people need a place that gives wings to their dreams, nurturing possibilities of who they might become. //Sally Clarkson//
The first week of the semester was completed on Friday and already I can see that this will be more precious than last one (if possible). I love this side of the classroom and am loving the light, warmth, and cozy welcoming vibe it has brought to F112 each day. I love the look of the cozy luxury vibe within the classroom and love those fun (and very cheap!) large paper snowflakes!
Honestly though...the best thing though about this space isn't the decorations but the time that I get to spend with incredible people in this place each day. *smiles*
