Students eagerly embark on their way to school, donning new uniforms, shiny shoes, and book bags filled with their new books! Today is the first day of school and the students as well as the teachers are anxious and excited. Many of the teachers at my school switched grade levels so today would be the first day they would test the countless hours of preparation they put forth in planning throughout the summer holiday. The school day starts off with devotion led by our principal, Mrs. Smith. Devotion consists of singing several hymns, reading a bible verse and daily announcements. Mrs. Smith closes with the inspirational quote "If it is to be, it is up to me," hopefully the students will take this with them throughout the school year and know that if they are to be successful it is up to them to work hard. This quote rings true for my fellow teachers and I as well, we all must continue to work hard to insure the best for our students. So here's to a great year in which to make sure of this "If it is to be, it is up to me."
