As we sit here today, eagerly waiting to graduate, let’s ask ourselves one simple question. Where would we all have been without teachers today?

Mrs. Parsons’ made new things everyday. For example, Mrs. Parsons’ gave us poop on a stick. Don’t worry! It’s only frosting on a popsicle stick!

There is a quote by Alexander Trenfor who describes, “The best teachers are those who show you where to look, but don’t tell you what to see.” A special thanks to Mrs. Shaffer who helped and guided us, yet pushed us to achieve more than we thought we
