Hi Change makers!
Happy Last Monday! A few more days and you will have completed a very difficult year of teaching! You should all be so proud. I am so proud of you all. You have made such a difference in the lives of your students and community just by showing up every day and not giving up. You are leaders. You are change makers.

There are a few important things in the Action Items, please review them all.
Almost to the end. Keep going. You got this.
