Three yrs together - you bond as no other class can.
Having said that.... The year ends as it started....What is my schedule today? I have no idea....I do know I can wear jeans and must have grades posted by 2:30. Then - a bunch of us are meeting for food and adult beverages....
3 1/2 post planning, 2 days of leadership institute and the summer is mine!!!!!!
YES!!!!!!
Now - vacation plans - either a cruise or a week in Sanibel.. Who's game?????

Congrats on surviving and thriving BK! I am a little jealous of you having the moment of verklempt chokinguppedness - I haven't had that since 2009 when I left the school I loved to move and cried like a big baby while hugging my old principal. Good news is that one of my former students and her mom are planning to come visit me in Key West the weekend after school is out!
And I am voting for Sanibel --- generally they don't lose power and end up floating in the middle of the ocean for days waiting for Coast Guard rescue
