Hello Seniors!
This is our last week together. Be here each day to participate in closing activities and to spend time with your classmates. You are being awarded points just for being here. Interact, be kind, say goodbye. Use your time respectfully. See you at Graduation.
It has been a pleasure holding space with you and being your teacher.
