Becoming a Bomber

I accepted a position to teach English at Barnum High School, which has been a goal of mine for a few years.  This is where my kids go to school, it's where I live, it's a great school.  I am so excited to teach there this year! 

I am also feeling very sad about leaving my last place of employment, Willow River High School.  I began teaching there in the fall of 2004, 9 years ago, just out of college.  I became a better teacher there because of all of the support I received from many people.  It's a tight community in that building, and everyone is looking out for one another.

What I will miss most of all are the people there.  The great kids.  The great parents.  The great staff. 

But change is good.  Even if it's hard.
