Not all Superheros Wear Capes
Westside Teacher Newsletter
A few great quotes I found that I thought spoke to the work of being a teacher. Sometimes we get discouraged, but its YOUR drive and work ethic that will help them create THEIR drive and work ethic.
continue to keep 164 1st load until the last bell. that worked much better today. The bus used to pick them up at 3:15. Lately it has been after 3:30 and that was to long for them to be out.

If you haven't noticed they cleared out the fence line on the south side of the school. We had things going on back in there and decided it would be best if their hang out was gone. I think it looks really good.
Teacher Money and Supply Money
dad update
The trip to St. Louis was a good one. Overall it was a positive day, but we have some obstacles to tackle. He still has a blood clot that is one inch wide in his heart. They have changed his meds in hopes to fix that. His heart isn't pumping as much as it should so he is at high risk for another heart attack. They have suggested that after we are on the new med for a month that we have a defibulator put in. That will be risky, but it is risky without it so we have made the decision to move forward on that.
Overall though his personality is starting to shine through a bit more and I got to see him walk. He had help but I have no doubts that we will get him walking again soon. Now if we could get him talking we would be set.
I appreciate the prayers, texts, and pats more than you know. WS family is the best.
