They grow up so fast! This week I got to see my first group of high schoolers graduate from the @ltgoodnews Spanish Immersion program, and some of my sweet first graders from Skiles Test graduate 6th grade! So proud to each of these sweet, kind, and hardworking kids!

May is full of JOY in education!

This week, I got to celebrate some of my favorite seniors as they graduated from 12 years of Spanish Immersion. Then, I got to watch my first class of first graders graduate 6th grade! 🎓💛
