This last week of school was extremely difficult for me. Since I have been teaching I am used to changes occurring within my grade level team; however, this year the changes were a little more than I was ready for. Let's just say I had plenty of tears this week.
In January while at a wedding I was approached by my friend Ashley saying she was leaving Newell at the end of the year. Ashely was our resource teacher. Her and I worked very close the past couple of years with students I had in my room along with RTI. While on maternity leave I found out that my partner teacher Cyndee was retiring. She was an amazing mentor teacher and taught me so much. Then after returning from maternity leave I found out another great friend Kelsey was moving. Kelsey and I became really close over the four years we started together. We definitely got closer during our grad classes through Doane. To top it off our principal Brad decided to challenge himself as the new middle school principal. WOW!! These are four people I have grown extremely close to over the past four years. They will leave a huge void in our school.
The last week of school we gave our principal a farewell party. All the students and staff wore Husker gear this day and we gave him his very own tunnel walk. Since this was the same day as our make up field day I dressed Landon in his Husker gear as well. He looked way too cute! I'm a little bummed that it probably won't fit during football season.
