"Feeling gratitude and not expressing it is like wrapping a present and not giving it."  (W.A.Ward)
                                                                                                                      
      I am grateful every day for the opportunity I've been given to work with your children. Thank you. 
                  
      
     Through sharing the story of our country and discussing the events which make up our daily 
      lives, I hope to cultivate an understanding and an appreciation of where we, as a nation, have 
      journeyed and to activate a curiosity and a desire to see how far we, as Americans, can go.
