I hope all of you have had a good year. I cannot believe that the fourth nine weeks and school is just about over. Time has flown by - which I guess when you love what you do, that will happen. I would personally like to thank all of you for what you do in and out of the classroom. This job may not be easy, but YOU make a difference everyday in the life of a child. When you feel tired or discouraged, go find a mentor to give you a pep talk. We all need that every so often - even those of us who have been teaching for a while.     Karen Evans, President
