Heading to the beach
We are getting packed up to head to the beach this morning. Rushing around getting last minute packing and details taken care of for a week of fun in the sun is how we hopped into our Saturday morning. I am excited about attending this year’s Summer Leadership sponsored by SCASA. In fact, Jennifer Ard, Vickie Norton, and I are presenting on Monday morning about our Kindergarten regrouping/flexible scheduling program. Presenting with a team of educators from your school is a highly professional experience. Not only do you learn more about each other, but you are able to showcase a best practice about your school and student population. I look forward to sharing more about our presentation and the feedback that we gain from others. Also, I look forward to a week of networking with other district and state administrators and their families. This annual conference is a great way to catch up with one another. I can’t wait to try to meet up with Sharon Huff and her family; she and I taught together at LEHS and now she is the principal of Daniel High. We always enjoy dinner together and share laughs watching our children “catch up” and interact. Finally, I am very much excited about spending time with my dear husband and my two adorable sons. Of course, we have planned dinner trips to our favorite beach restaurants (King’s Pizza and Burro Loco), gathered our sand castle building tools, packed the camera for priceless pictures, and have planned afternoon visits to Par 3 and the new Hard Rock theme park, but more importantly, I look forward to some quality time with my children. Even more priceless is that this week is a combination Father’s Day weekend and Marcos’s birthday! I am truly blessed!
Keep reading Ron Clark and share your comments on Chapter 2/3. I have my summer beach reading packed. Also, I will send a postcard of my travels. Don’t forget to send your postcards and be working on your summer writing. We will use these exercises when we return to school in August. Have a great Father’s Day!
