Teacher Summit, Sup?

Throw teacher into meetings from all over the east coast and what do you get?
Surprisingly, no disparaging but encouragement.

O, did we soak it up? All the way.

Cpep rocked the house with over 10 people...

It was basically a slumber party/ retreat for teachers. Ok, so maybe I was the only one with this view?

Let's see...what do I remember?


It's not the classes and meetings. Granted I learn a few things coupled with affirmation and challenge.

It's the...Ziplines, laughing 'til 2 am, omelet bar, great weather, ziplining (oops already said that), blobbing, jamming out to Beiber, trying to keep tabs on the friend I invited, being treated like a student (and yes, don't you worry I totally rebelled and didn't listen), the huge cookie/ice cream pan dessert, the battery dying/chilling out in the parking garage, and the school bus that was our shuttle (slight nightmares of hockey season arise).




Moral of the Story:What did I cherish most?

The laughter, inside jokes, and intoxicating feeling of not being alone in this pursuit of loving kids as and where they are. And, I know that many join me on this journey whether related to YL or not.
