TCAPS

I went to my school today and was told no visitors were allowed because of TCAPS. Kindergarteners don't take them though so i'm bummed the school won't let any grade level have outside helpers. Next week will be the last time I will see these kids. I go to the school I attended as a child, so working here brings back fond memories of my childhood. When I leave next week, who knows when i'll be back, or if I will be back. Beginning a path toward education is exciting, but also scary. Interning as a high schooler is a lot different from being one in college. In college I am making a real commitment. I know this is what i want to do, but the kid inside of me kind of wants me to just stay a cadet forever. no pressure. Lots of fun and experience. I will miss the kids, teachers, and the school. It's almost like leaving the school all over again.
I still remember on my last day of fifth day, walking out of my school and seeing my mom holding a graduation balloon. I walked up, took the balloon, an began to cry on our way home. I love this school. I love being here and seeing the perspective of my teachers when I was a child. It still seems like yesterday though. I won't get a ballon this time when I leave, but I know i'll cry. I love this school.
