Celebrate and Appreciate
Congratulations Fifth Grade Students and all PAES staff for playing a role in their success!!
In Onward, Aguilar reminds us that resilience is improved when gratitude increases. So, as we celebrate our fifth grade students for their graduation, please know that you are appreciated. This week has been filled with emotions- uncertainty, pride, excitement, wonder, sadness, fear, love and joy- and you've always found a way to be thankful for the interactions, the dances, the smiles, the videos, the songs, the pets, the siblings, the birds, the babies, the games, the artwork, the effort and the time with our students and their families. Thanks to each of you for the role you've played this year and your unending efforts to help individual students succeeds. You've made a difference in the lives of EVERY Junior Bulldog and not a day goes by without my most sincere appreciation for each of you!
Small wonder, then, that teaching tugs at the heart, opens the heart, even breaks the heart- and the more one loves teaching, the more heartbreaking it can be. The courage to teach is the courage to keep one's heart open in those very moments when the heart is asked to hold more than it is able.
