So, tonight is the Homecoming game for the varsity football team. They have put in many hours of practice for the "big game" and I am sure that they all want to do their best. It is an important night for them. I will be there with the High School Pep Band, so if you are there, please say hi!
But I was thinking that our concerts, and the Homecoming game, aren't that different in the way that they give our students and children a chance to shine at something that they can't do sitting in a classroom. Show YOU the product of their hard work. And it doesn't matter if they win or lose, or squeak and squonk, right? What matters is that they are proud of the work they have put in, and that you are proud of them! So whether it's at the game tonight, or at one of the district's concerts, give your child or student a round of applause, a cheer, or a honk on the air horn....wait...please don't bring air horns to the concert!
Today marks the end of the first week of 4th grade lessons, and for me, it is always interesting to see how the students I know now change as the year progresses. I hope that the weekend brings you all good health, and stay tuned!
