I'm Thankful!

I am thankful for:
A supportive family - especially my beautiful wife Dana and son Seely.
A forgiving God.
Excellent health.
A supportive school community.
Amazing students who come to us ready and prepared to learn.
Super dedicated teachers and staff!
A beautiful school.
A supportive school district - Springfield Public Schools (Springfield, MO).
Having everything I could ever need in my life and needing for nothing.
The desire to be a life-long learner.
And last, but not least - the desire and drive to be a better man, husband, and father each and every day of my life.
Thank you to all my family and friends near and far, my PLN near and far, and my peers and colleagues at Cherokee and with Springfield Public Schools.
I'm thankful for you ALL!
