We made it! After a crazy COVID ride through the school year, we have made it to the end, and it is so bittersweet. I would like to close our year with an excerpt from the 7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens. The last words of this book are so timely and offer good advice to live by. It is simply this:
"Remember the flight of an airplane. When an airplane takes off it has a flight plan. However, during the course of the flight, wind, rain, turbulence, air traffic, human error, and other factors keep knocking it off course. In fact, a plane is off course about 90% of the time. The key is that the pilots keep making course corrections by reading their instruments, and talking to the control tower. As a result, the plane reaches it's destination.
If you keep getting knocked off your flight plan and feel as though you're off course 90% of the time....so what? If you just keep coming back to your plan, keep making small adjustments, and keep hope alive, you'll eventually reach your destination."
-Sean Covey, 7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens

Our students are destined for great things; this I am sure! It has been an absolute pleasure teaching them and getting to know each of them throughout the year. Thank you for sharing them with me and partnering with me in your child's education.
It is already too quiet and empty around here!
