mark tonin Posted November 23, 2004 Report Share Posted November 23, 2004 Thanks for the thanks meggo ... I'm glad I could help out with some supportive words ... perhaps I'll use this as an example of "providing support to a teaching colleague" when I meet with my VP tomorrow to discuss my teacher performance appraisal for this year. :: Hope to see you again in the near future! Peace, Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottieking Posted November 24, 2004 Report Share Posted November 24, 2004 Meggo, you are merely the newest link in a chain of caring educators and your turn will come to return the favor not just to a new teacher, but maybe to an old one like me (or an even older one like Tonin, ha! Just kidding buddy) I've never known you to be anything but a ray of light, Meggo. See you at New Year's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
backbacon Posted November 24, 2004 Report Share Posted November 24, 2004 Awww, meggo, you are so welcome for the package. You are special and deserve it and I so enjoyed putting it together and sending it along to you. I love you too! Keep up the good work, girl!

Just kidding buddy) I've never known you to be anything but a ray of light, Meggo. See you at New Year's. Wise words my friend and colleague ... with age comes wisdom :: As an aside, my meeting today with my VP went well ... sometimes it is very healthy to reflect upon things, which is what the meeting was mainly about. And honestly meggo, don't ever hesitate to ask for support. Teaching, especially in the early years, can be extremely challenging and emotionally-draining. It's nice to be able to help out a friend and colleague. Peace, Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
