Last chapel service of the year, and it was amazing. Kate sat with her former Kindergarten class. Many of the children wouldn't let her go once chapel was over this morning. We honored the seniors; who have finished and are actually in Washington D.C. right now. We honored the Kindergarteners; which would have included Gracie. We read Scripture, sang some hymns (including a jazzed up version of "This Little Light of Mine" for the lower school), and listened to a wonderful message about God's view on children. It's certainly not a bad way to spend 70 minutes of my day. The service was a great way to send me into Wednesday and final exams for my students.
Tomorrow is the last day of school. I say good-bye to my sophomores, and I ship them to the next set of teachers in line. Tomorrow is also my annual History Jeopardy Tournament. I also will be getting my teacher evaluations. A few years ago, I created a questionaire for my students to openly comment on what they liked about my teaching this year and what they might have wanted to see me do differently. It's a great tool for me to measure how to approach my teaching, but it's also fun for the students to really admit how they feel about having me as a teacher. I've gotten some eye-opening answers in the past. Some of them are very interesting to read. Overall, I'm just as excited to see the end of school (although Friday for me) than the kids. It's an end to another good year.
