Thank you 2nd years(especially lisa)

I want to send my sincere thanks to the 2nd years for mentoring us 1st years through what will likely be one of the more challenging career/life situations we will experience. Being 1st year teachers is tough, and being 1st year teachers in critical needs schools can just about give you an ulcer. Your wisdom, leadership and experience made the process a lot easier.

In particular:
Karl, Angela, and Molly: Thank you for always being so warm and friendly, and for all the good advice.

Lisa: You were about the best mentor I can imagine. You were the one who initially showed me how to teach and as a mentor were always such a good listener. The package you got for me at the beginning of the(stapler, hole punch, etc...) year meant the world. I am really thankful that such a class act was my lead teacher during the summer and my mentor during the year. Thank you for everything and I wish you the very best because you deserve it.
