After a traumatic leave from my dream job - teaching Junior High School Theatre - I returned to teaching Elementary School. It was hard. I missed my kiddos immensely. I missed my dream job, not to mention how traumatic it was to leave. After two years, I decided to accept the fact that I am an elementary school teacher by posting something positive that happened in my classroom every day. It started on Instagram and Facebook. It's now in blog form. Thanks for coming.

This little box has been with me since Spring of 2017 when my North DAVIS Junior High kiddos gifted it to me after a particularly hard few days. It was full of my favorite things; Coke, Cadbury Cream Eggs, etc… It has been with me through NLJH, Moss, Taylorsville, Twin Peaks, and Plymouth Elementary Schools, and the first two weeks of William Penn and Monroe! When I picked it up and it broke and everything came spilling out, I cried a little, but then I laughed! It has been through so much, it was bound to break…
like I broke.
I threw it away, and that’s okay! It’s okay that I don’t have reminders of NLJH and the other schools that were rough! These elementary kiddos give me so much love and appreciation this year , that it’s okay! Here’s to making new positive memories at these two fantastic schools that not only have AMAZING kiddos, but incredibly supportive and loving faculty and staff!
