School Support

Maybe I don't see myself at Madison beyond this year, but it's still pretty fun to get involved.  I enjoy wearing my Madison sweater and staff shirts, and I just got another shirt promoting Eagle Nation from the freshman class.  I like participating in the fundraisers (chili cookoff this Saturday!) and going to the sporting events.  It's cool to see teachers outside of teaching mode, and perhaps even more so to see students (although, admittedly, I'd like to know that I'm going to see them before I see them...long story).  It's days like yesterday, when the entire stands were full for the rivalry hoops game against Lamphere, that make me happy to be a teacher, to still be connected with all of it.  I love it when students get involved in making my, shall we say "ghetto-ish" high school into something more resembling a traditional high school experience.  Only 16 more weeks...hopefully I'll see some more of this.
