Day ??

As you can see from the title, I lost track of what day we are on....sorry!

Yesterday, was our final day with the students and today was our final staff meeting for the year.....

.....I looked back on what I wrote on Day 1 of the academy....tonight I thought I would add a little commentary to what I wrote...new comments are in blue....

Well.....the day has finally arrived!!!! Day 1 of the Carpe Diem Academy has come to an end (We now say Phase 1 of the Carpe Diem Academy has come to an end....strange). I am not exactly sure what to write....a plethora of thoughts are running through my mind....however....the one thing that sticks out the most is how wonderful the staff did (I still agree!)!! Their excitement is seen through their planning and their endless energy....they will have first hand in changing the world and we can't thank them enough!

The academy is new for all of us...we will make adjustments as we go (....and we certainly made adjustments!)....it's how we grow (.....and we certainly grew!).

Where I was, the students had a great time dancing with the dancers from Spotlight Studio! Their laughs and smiles were contagious! They are certainly looking forward to tomorrow's visit from JumpBunch.(The students loved both Spotlight and JumpBunch!)

My brain is full(it's slowly emptying out).....my feet hurt....I need a shower....I will write more tomorrow....

Looking back can sometimes be difficult to do. Today, I passed up an opportunity of a lifetime..to present at a teacher workshop in Jordan.....and I am already looking back on the decision I made. However, one opportunity of a lifetime at a time....I need to focus on the academy....

Carpe Diem!
