Proud to be a G-Town Teacher
This past Saturday was the Junior Prom. As I am new to the high school this year, this was my first time chaperoning the prom. Let me tell you, it was awesome!! Please don’t interpret that to mean that I was reliving my high school experience and thinking it was my own prom (although the other teachers and I did have great time dancing to the songs from our high school days). What I mean is that the prom was great because the kids were great. They were all so well behaved, so excited to be there, and so much fun to spend time with.
The other chaperone’s and I were commenting on our own proms, and how many of the kids when we were in school would have scoped out the entire place to find “privacy areas” (I’m assuming you get my drift here…do I need to explain further?) but there is absolutely no way that happened the other night because no one ever left the dance floor. Ever. Also, a majority of the students after prom, rather than going to an “after prom party” went bowling. Bowling! How great is that? These are the kids who you would assume would go to a party afterwards and we’d be hearing stories for weeks about it. Not the case, though. Many went bowling, some went to Denny’s, and others went back to a friends house to eat breakfast and watch movies.
This just goes to show that we don’t give our students enough credit. We have, by far, the best kids ever in this district. G-Town Rocks!!
