Go, Cubs, Go!
Go, Cubs, Go!
What an amazing finish to a 108 year journey! It has been hard to escape news about our Cubs lately, and even for the non-fan, the Chicago Cubs have provided us with much to talk about lately, and for us fans, perhaps the need for an extra cup of coffee in the morning and a Tums or two to get through the games!

Lessons Learned Outside the Classroom
As I sit in my office, now a middle school assistant principal, and reflect on my own years as a middle school student, many memories flood into my mind. Of course I have memories of certain teachers who made a lasting impact on me, but what I remember the most are vivid memories of the time I spent outside the classroom involved in extracurricular activities.
