Three years ago I was sitting in an unknown lunchroom, listening to some unknown principals talking about this great unknown school. I met some nameless faces of some unknown staff - people who could possibly be Joe's teacher. My husband was my supporter thought this changing time.
Today I sat in this same room with principals I knew and recognized, happy to be back in the Multi-purpose room where Joe eats at each day, smiling at some teachers who have made not only an incredible impact on Joe - but on me as well. I was able to sit with my best friend and her husband as I offered my knowledge and support.
A few things have changed at Beadle Middle School during the past three years that Joe has attended. From what I see - they are good changes.
My tears of uneasiness, fear, and worry of three years ago were replace with a calm and certain feeling that Jackson will also not only grow - but thrive in such a caring, progressive, and academic place.
I'm happy to be able to continue my time as being a Beadle Bulldog Parent.....in fact I'm looking forward to being back in two years...... in the same lunch room - getting re-acquainted with familiar faces - when I return to get Jenna ready for Middle School!
