Back to School Night


So I just got back from doing Back to School Night. It was a great experience. This year is going to bring so many new experiences for me. I love being in this spot-the whole year ahead of me. I can't remember a time in my life when I didn't want to be a teacher. Since Kindergarten I have known that a teacher is what I would be when I grew up. I'm so grateful for that. Meeting my students made it all very real. They were all so excited and eager for second grade. It really made me realize the responsibility that I have. Being a teacher is such a big deal. I now have 25 + little people watching my every move and assuming what I do is 'right'. It puts a lot on my shoulders. But at the same time it makes me want to be better and do better. It gives me a purpose and I feel needed.
