GREAT WEEKEND...

Had a good "last weekend before school starts" trip! Guess where I was (2 places):

FRESHMAN ORIENTATION NIGHT

Great to see so many of you & your families tonight! Excitement is in the air on the hill :-) Loved seeing last year's students easing our new freshmen through their transition. It's going to be a great year Millionaires! SEE YOU TUESDAY!!!

I'm so excited...

and I just can't hide it! That's an old song...anybody know it??? Actually, I'm getting excited for school to start. Teachers & classroom aides start calling each other wondering who's ready to go back & what our opening days will be like. You'd think I'd get used to the beginning of school jitters...but I'm as excited as always. CAN'T WAIT TO GET BACK IN THE GROOVE ON THE HILL!!! See you soon :-)

Block Party...

On a much happier note...last night I, along with some other WAHS teachers, administrators, & staff, went to the Antioch block party.  What a great event that is! It's great to have everyone together, being happy and enjoying the neighborhood. I was running a game so I didn't get to mingle too much but it was nice to see some of you and hear your summers have gone well....and it got me excited to see you again on a regular basis in our hallways :-)  Stop by G202 to say "HI"!!!

UGHHHHHH!!!!

Why can't any of my teams just play ball & win??? It's always some drama in my sports world! My Mets are stinkin' up this summer & my Eagles have disappointed me so much by signing Vick that I'm not sure I can support them with him on the team :-(   I want to cry.....

VISITED SCHOOL TODAY...

Headed up on the hill this morning for a meeting with Mr. Elliott, Mr. Fausnaught, Mr. Zangara, & Mr. Moon. The hallways seem so empty without our smiling students' faces...won't be long now!

After our meeting, I met Mr. Jett from Alt. Ed. for lunch at Leslie's Cafe on Memorial Ave. YUMMY!!! Was so good to see him and catch up on our summers. When I left there, I ran into Shaquille & A.J. walking down the street....so good to see you both (I even got hugs) :-)

Can't wait to see everyone back on the hill...IT'S GONNA BE A GREAT YEAR!!!
