A student's mom nominated me about a month ago. I was just shocked and honored to be nominated- I didn't care if I won. So, the mom, my principal, a G/T student, and G/T coordinator all wrote essays about me. I guess their words were great 'cause I won!
I won in our region, which is Region 4. Region 4 is the biggest in Texas- so I was flabbergasted! I will now be put in the pot for the whole state of Texas. We'll see..........
September I will get my plaque, and I will be recognized at the annual TAGT conference. I am just so honored by this accolade. I can't even get over it.
I didn't even want to teach G/T. Now, I can't imagine doing anything else. People say, "oh, you've got it made; you've got the easy ones to teach!" Not entirely true. They are NEEDY! And they can be a bit annoying at times with their "know-it-all" comments and questions about everything! But, I wouldn't change them for anything. These students are brilliant, creative, sweet, unique, gifted and talented.
Thank you to my G/T students: Hannah, Caroline, Draven, Nathan, Tyler, Fatema, Justin, Emma, Rebecca, and Megan for making it easy for me to get up every morning to teach y'all. You guys are a true inspiration to me! I only wish I was half as amazing as you 10 are!
