Hellooooo, full moon.
I knew you were here before I even looked into the sky.
This was a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad week in many ways at school and at home.
S.T.R.E.S.S.F.U.L. Enough about that, though, because...
The week ended on an amazing note, as my steel band students performed two tunes on the high school stage tonight for Jon's annual percussion concert. They were part of a district all-star steel band (first time this has ever been done here), and played with about 50 other students from local elementary, middle, and high schools.
