I began collecting screenshots of the messages my students/parents would send to me so I could cherish the relationships I have built and remind myself during moments of uncertainty why I love what I do. I also started an education journal to write about the moments I don’t ever want to forget and they also provide me with an equal amount of joy.
What parents & Students are saying.

"I wanna thank you for everything you did for me this year, i genuinely would not have been able to do it without your guidance. you have made me feel so welcome at (school name removed) and re-introduced my love for education. i told you i decided i want to be a teacher but i didn't tell you it was because of you. you have left such a huge impact on me and so many other students and I can not begin to thank you enough for how much you care."
