This past weekend was graduation: seniors walked across the stage, cried a little bit, and gave their speeches of farewell and encouragement. It made me think of my own high school graduation a lot and how long ago that seems. I think it's safe to say I have changed and grown a lot as a person since then, 5 years ago now. However, I did truly feel like a teacher as I was giving some students final tidbits of advice and guidance for college in the States. It's scary to think we just release these kids into the real world now :)
Not seniors, my junior Algebra 2 students Minnie and Teresa, but so adorable in their little dress uniforms I just had to get a picture with them on graduation day.
Maggie, class of 2011. Didn't teach her but you can see we were obviously still pretty close!
Faculty had to wear the robs just like at college/university graduation ceremonies. It felt oddly familiar seeing as how I just graduated from UWL about a year ago...
