A New Beginning!

Here I am...At Cedar Ridge High School...
Very excited to get the new school year started out!

The raven and Mr. Bear made the move just fine!

I finally have a classroom with windows!!! After seven years in the district!

Will write more later...

Love, Ikard

A New Beginning...

It is amazing how fast a summer goes...it is already August, and another school year has come...

Now I am back teaching high school, and very excited...

The building here at Cedar Ridge is so beautiful...

I finally have windows after being in the district for seven years. I love the natural lighting! Mr. Bear (Pancho Villa) has settled in well; my new Raven hat is here. I am sad that the old raven is gone, but what can I do?

Next job: clean out the garage.

:-)

Love,

Ikard

P.S. I CAN'T wait to meet my new precious baby angel darlings!!!!

Thoughts...

As I watched the Leadership video today, I felt so mixed with emotions.

I wanted to cry- I know that is silly.

When I was in sixth grade I was bullied, and it is a scar that I carry with me to this day. It was a very bad case, to where I could not go to school, and I developed stomach ulcers.

Please...if you know that someone is being bullied tell an adult.

I love my job...no, really...

Teaching today made me a little emotional.
I was so proud of all of my students. I cannot believe that only five did not pass the test! That is really awesome. I am going to work very hard with these five kids.

All of my students are so awesome this year; I really am blessed.

I think about my grandmother a lot (she was a teacher); I think she would be proud of me. Maybe a little disappointed that I don't speak fluent Spanish yet, but proud.

Love,

A New Year...

I wonder what the future will hold.
