Class of 2009


Seniors last day...those three words mean the world to so many kids. Whether they are the valedictorian of their class (go Artan:) or just got the word that they have a waiver for that last 1/2 credit and have definitive word that they get to walk on Tuesday (our graduation!) They are walking three feet above the ground - in January when it was cold and miserable and easy to sleep in (and three Januarys prior to this as well) despite their worst intentions they came to school - they moaned, we groaned, but we all made it through and now as the trees turn brilliant spring green they are feeling their own sap rise and as teachers, we feel pride and joy and let's admit it - relief!!

This is, without a doubt, my favorite part of spring!
