School's Out...celebrate!

AM Class

PM Class

Don't get me wrong, I love my job, but I feel just like a kid at the end of the year!  Had another great year working with a super teacher.  We had a great class - challenges yes - but still great.  It's so grand seeing them progress so much.  At first you don't think they'll ever get it, and then it all starts clicking for most of them.  Some still have a little catch up, but most are on target.  I got the opportunity to work full-time for several weeks at the end of the year when the AM aide got sick and had to take some time off.  I had worked with many of the AM students the previous summer in the summer kindergarten preschool, so it was fun to be back with them.  I enjoyed it, but now I know that I am perfectly satisfied to work part time.  I'm just too spoiled to give up all of my day.  If I got another 4 hours added to my day to make up for it, I would be just fine with it.
