Accent on Excellence Awards Banquet

This year I was awarded a district award called Accent on Excellence. There was a banquet on May 2 and I was allowed to invite one student to speak in my behalf. I invited Brianna, a darling ten-year-old girl. We had a great time and had a delicious dinner. Following dinner, awards were presented to the teachers after their students had spoken about them. Brianna's dad, Jonathan came as well as my principal, Dr. Nancy Sorensen, and our assistant principal, Janna Kunz. It was a wonderful night. I felt very honored and flattered to be chosen. They even gave me $500! Brian said it was okay to be a little impractical with the money. :) I still have a lot to learn about teaching but am enjoying the ride. Year 6 and counting!
