Back to Work!

It is August! For me, this means that lessons are being planned and my classroom is being readied for students! I love back to school time! This year is extra special! This is my first year to teach at Houston Christian High School. I have been in several days of in-service ... and I have actually enjoyed it. The love that the staff members have for the Lord, each other, and the students permeates every activity. The common passion for maximizing spiritual and academic development in our students is energizing and unifying.

For me, school is always best when the students are there ... so I am really excited ... things are only going to get even better on Thursday when my students arrive.

So, today, I offer nothing profound ... and I don't even point you to an interesting study. I am simply excited and wanted to share that excitement with you ... and I am grateful, so grateful ... and I guess I wanted to share that, too.

I wish you and Jim great success this year. May you be as excited and enthusiastic about teaching at the end of the year as you are now.

BTW, I always used to watch "Dead Poets Society" and "To Sir With Love" in August to get me really pumped up.
