They've got a point Lil. Can't tell you how many times I've heard someone say "When I grow up I want to be a teacher." Being in contact with a child for that amount of time impacts them whether they realize it or not. I can still remember most of my teachers' names starting with kindergarten. Most of them are the ones that actually taught me something and wanted me to succeed. Only a few didn't care enough to actually try to get me to do my work. As such, I hope you are as big a hero to your new class as were to the ones in the past.

In my sorrow I rejoice in your joy Congradulations
