Where has this year gone? Could it really be possible that we only have a month of school left until summer break? As I reflect on the highs and lows of this school year at J. H. House, one of the highs definitely has been my experience with blogging. The student comments have meant so much to me. At times they have made me smile! For instance, Mike said,
"I felt like I was not important enough to even have an adult conversation with the SACS commitee. I am so mad that just becuase I am a little kid I have a little mind becuase I don't. P.S I am very intellegent."
His comment was in reference to the fact that the SACS evaluation committee had asked to meet with students at our school and then ran out of time before they were able to talk to the students. I had to smile at Mike's comment because he is intelligent and I would love to have heard what he planned to tell the committee.
I'll have to admit time constraints have been a problem for me. Other things seem to always come up that are "in my face" and get my immediate attention. However, the interaction with students on the weblog has kept me going. I really do value their opinions. That means I have to find the time somehow to continue in my "quest". Next year, I would like to continue with chapter 2 of the Principal's Quest. Perhaps I can somehow tie current events into character education somehow. My thoughts are still swirling around somewhat. I visualize being able to respond to segments of the CNN news by identifying the positive character traits exhibited by someone in the news or perhaps their lack thereof. Let me know what you think.
Your letter over kindness was great.I loved it.

Mrs. Hooper-
I have to applaud your dedication to your weblog this year! Your character education posts have been wonderful. I know that the boys & girls of JHH have really enjoyed reading them.
Mike’s quote about the SACS visit was my favorite! The evaluation committee missed a golden opportunity to speak with many of our wonderful young boys & girls. We are the lucky ones as we can talk to them everyday.
It’s like they say…J.H. House has the best and brightest students in the whole world!

I am an elementary education student at William and Mary and we have been working with blogs for the past year. I think you and your school have done an amazing job using blogs as a tool! Reading your blog has definitely gotten me thinking about benefits I hadn't even realized could come with blogging. Thanks!

Yes, life needs gratefulness. Gratefulness is not only confined to love, but also to friendship, family bonds, mutual cherishing as well as constant missing each other!
