While last week was a bit hit or miss with groups due to Wolf Ridge, class plays, and field trips, this week groups are a "sure thing" as we will be celebrating our last week of being together. How fast did that go?!?
To honor the occasion we're doing our third annual "camp-in", complete with tent, campfire stories, and s'mores, all from the comfort of the Learning Center! The kids get such a kick out of the novelty of "camping" and it's a great way to reflect on what we did and learned throughout the school year while we transition into thinking about summer. I look forward to this week all year long!
On a personal note, this has also been a great opportunity for me to put some closure not just to the school year, but also to my time in the Westonka district. I won't be returning for the 2011-2012 school year as I have decided to pursue other opportunities that combine my love for travel with my passion for working with kids and families. I'm a firm believer in taking risks and living life without regrets, so fingers crossed I've made the right decision!
I will be teaching Summer Enrichment in Mound through Westonka Community Education until September, as well as helping out with Adventure Club. Hopefully I have an opportunity to work a little longer with your children, or at least say good-bye, before heading off. Thank you for all of your support over the last three years!
Here's to a great summer and a bright future!
Shannon
