TJ Updates
I was listening to a podcast interview with Tim Shriver. During the interview, he discussed how "great teachers love their students" and the impact of this had on his ability to get great things from his students. As I listened, I thought of how evident the love of students is at T.J. It is one of the many reasons that I love working here.
Thanks to Erin for organizing a wonderful evening to honor our retiring staff. This night highlighted not just the impact each staff member has had on many children, but the impact each staff member has on the rest of the staff. Throughout the evening, it was evident just how much of a family we are. Congratulations to all of our retirees... you will be missed next year.
Last week, our fifth graders had their D.A.R.E graduation. This year's D.A.R.E. essay winners were Ethan DeSalvo and Olivia Cross. Congratulations to all our fifth graders!
Here are some pictures from last week...
