Graduation season is upon us. The TEAMies have returned from college. It is a hard feeling to see all the kids back after their 1st year in college. Alicia had so looked forward towards college and the experiences it would bring. We still have her acceptance letters and the condolence letter from the UC Chancellor with a note she had been accepted at Davis.
I missed the TAMASCAL graduation where Alicia's scholarship was bestowed upon Stephanie Kyne which will help her with a NOLs course in Patagonia. Congrats!
TEAM held a reunion last weekend to celebrate the retirement announcement of Chuck. Chuck has been the heart and soul of the TEAM program for over 20 years. Alicia really blossomed in the team program and continued to grow at Tamascal HS. We will reach out to some parents we know from TEAM to discuss establishing a not-for-profit foundation benefiting TEAM. After Chuck retires, I want ensure that this wonderful program is able to continue for future generations of kids. We'll probably need to off-set the salary of 1 teacher to ensure budgetary issues do not kill it.
I watched a video called 'Here Comes Goodbye' by Rascal Flatts. I lost it. The video was very well done and surprising. I must have cried for 5 minutes. Here is the link below.
