Time Flies

This has been a tremendous year of growth for us all in 9-1. I cannot believe how quickly the end of the year has arrived, and looking back over the year, I am amazing at the progress made by each member of our class, myself included. In history, we traveled from the caves of Africa to the tournaments fields of medieval times. We learned about meteorites, oysters, the Great Pyramid, and trebuchets, taking a small part of each home with us (a larger part, in the case of the trebuchet). The boys have become better writers, leaders, mathematicians, readers, builders, collaborators, historians, creators, athletes, problem-solvers, citizens, and friends. They have worked hard, made mistakes, reflected, and persevered with success. I could not be more proud of a group of young men, ones who will be strong leaders of the school next year in Tenth Age. I look forward to morning visits as they take the walk to their classrooms and updates on their summer adventures. This has been an incredibly special class, and I feel incredibly fortunate to have been a part of it all! Thank you for sharing this year with me.

I thought this video from the first day of school was a sweet reminder of how much we have grown throughout the year.
Feel free to watch any of the videos our vimeo site from this year, watching them certainly shows that time flies when you are having fun!
