We hope everyone is staying warm this week! As we move into February, the month of love, I have been reflecting on what I love about education. I think what I love the most is the "a-ha" moment when a student understands the concept that is being taught. Usually, it is expressed as a verbal "Oooooh" that the educator received as confirmation of understanding. This powerful exchange motivates teachers to keep teaching and students to keep learning. I am so grateful for this school community, and for our students who persevere through hard learning!
