Hello Summer

Summer arrives Thursday.  We have nine days till year end. So far we have had three lovely award gatherings. One in Rainbow, one in Blue Hills and one in High level last Friday.  Each was a celebration of all that students do and all that staff do, to get kids to a space where they can see success.  Kat Winter spoke about Eric and his impact on her. She said she was a reluctant student and he made her believe she could do it. She travelled from Vancouver to honor her teacher. Now that's a lovely way to retire! What an honor to hear her talk about Eric. (made me tear a little.) Huge thanks to Bonnie for inviting her to our celebration.  You all  impact our kids daily and for years to come.
