100 Days of Gratitude: Day 37


Today I'm grateful for the schools my children attend. I love the curriculum, the positive atmosphere on campus (particularly at John and Ben's school), and most of all I love their fantastic teachers. They each know and care about my children, and it shows. That makes such a huge difference to me. I'm grateful for the education they're receiving, and try not to take it for granted. The schools are one of my main reasons for staying in the East Valley.

On top of that, you've gotta be grateful for that picture... :)

We often consider moving out of the area - perhaps where houses are less expensive, but we just can't justify it when our kids are in such top notch schools here. I am amazed at how different school is than when I was that age. I remember a lot of my teachers being really really mean and the classrooms so dull. I'm grateful for wonderful caring teachers that want to be there - and it shows! I'm grateful for the nurturing environments that teachers have transformed their classrooms into.

Thats one of the things I really dont like down here. The schools are not that great. The teachers are great, but there is only so much they can do when you have a class with 30 kids and large chunk of them are from spanish speaking homes. Its quite frustrating!
