Hello Spiegel Core Families!!
Wow, I can't believe the year is over. For anyone who knows what it is like to be a first year teacher, it feels like a monumental victory from my perspective! For anyone who knows what it's like to be a middle schooler, making it through a year is a huge victory for our students, too! We did it!!
I just want to take a moment to thank you all for making my first year so amazing, and for making da Vinci feel like home. I am so lucky to be a part of this community and to be able to work with such incredibly talented, insightful, inspirational, creative students. I learn and grow every day as much as they do, and I couldn't ask for more than that! Students and parents working together with teachers is one of the things that makes da Vinci so great, and every core student and parent has helped keep this year productive and fun.
From the bottom of my heart, I can't thank you all enough for the growth, positive change, inspiration, challenges, and opportunities for improvement that I experienced this year, which wouldn't have been possible without all of you. I will be a better teacher next year and every year after thanks to you. And I will never forget my first class :)
Have an awesome summer!!
And students, keep being critical thinkers and mindful citizens - don't neglect your brain!!
Check the website in the next week, as I will be adding links to summer resources!
Thank you all again!!!
