Goodbye Nate

My heart smiled when I read Nate's poem from the scrapbook ya'll gave me of our year and I thought I'd share it:

-Mrs. Phillips-

I feel joyful when

she is around and I

feel lonely when she

wa(l)ks out the door.

-Nate-

Nate, we will miss you next year...I think we already do!

You brought a special joy to our classroom and everyone felt it. Please know that we love you and wish you well in your new life in Arizona.

I am confident that you will excel in your studies and be a good friend to all you meet. I know we will see you shine all the way from Arizona!

Goodbye,
Jackie, Adam, Ian, Ethan, Ben, Matthew G., Grant, Elizabeth, Matthew Q., Sam, Sophie, Alex, Trey, Celeste, Jackson, Sarah, Jourdan, Audrey, and Mrs. Phillips
