Tomorrow I will wish my seniors the best of all things as they wander off into the world and next week I will let the rest of my students go to summer and shut down shop here. As I begin to put things away and as students begin to go away, I cannot help but to look back at this year with something akin to awe and gratitude because a year ago, I expected that at this time, I would be saying my goodbyes to the school that I have taught at for the last six years. I did not expect that I would have the support of the district, staff and students as I transitioned from male to female.
