As we gather today, I hope you take a moment to give thanks to those who have answered the call to teach.
Our students and fellow teachers are part of our families, and I am forever grateful to have felt their curiosity, joy, and passion for learning.
Whether you’re just beginning your journey or you’re a seasoned educator, we’re all here for the same reason: we are optimists — believing that when we give those things to the next generation, they will make our world a better place.
And for that, this Thanksgiving, I am grateful to call you a colleague. 💕

Tube on strike, I dawdled to Paddington on Friday. Passing the old wrought iron sign for Pizza Express, I was reminded of an event 30+ years ago, when I got caught up in a drama that resulted in a divorce, two marriages and many changed lives.
