This Place (Goodbye)


This Place

This place was my home for the last 8 years.
This place was my inspiration.
This place was where I learned to be an educator and a leader.
This place looks a lot different than when I walked in.

This place is where I have met some of the most inspirational people.
This place is where I have been able to watch students grow and succeed.
This place is where students celebrate success, evaluate defeat, and mourn the loss of loved ones.
This place is where I learned more from my students than I could ever hope to impart to them.

This place grows leaders (students and teachers).
This place inspires others to strive for success regardless of their background or situation.
This place has the hardest working staff anywhere.
This place is family.

This place is where students are prepared and taught to succeed.
This place is not only an elective classroom, it is the entire school.
This place is Success Through Actions (all day, everyday).

This place, I ever PLEDGE to keep your memory.
