VACATION

Enjoy your summer break everyone. It was a pleasure to teach and learn from each and every one of you this academic year. We can do and accomplish any and everything we want if we are committed to do so. Why should we settle for good or okay when greatness is our true potential? Leer no es solo cosa de gringo! There have been an "amazing" zero latino, female and African-American presidents! We must become the change we want to see or we will become another poor statistic!

I will miss you eighth graders...

Diane, keep reaching for the CEILING!

Mariel, keep working hard and you will become the first Latino woman in the Supreme Court! I am not “worry”, because I know you will be “happy”!
