Seeing these two at the Argo football game made my night! They have no idea how much it meant to me that I was their 1st grade teacher many years ago, and it warms my heart seeing them doing so well in high school! Keep striving to reach your dreams! 🩷@ISD109 @BrodnickiSchool

Remember the quote we often hear for students, "when a flower doesn't bloom you fix the environment in which it grows, not the flower". This is also true for administrators, teachers and staff. Never underestimate the importance of a positive culture.

Congratulations to the @WilkinsJH1 8th Grade Class of 2023! I’m so proud of you all. This class is special to me , as I was their teacher in both first grade and second grade! We made many fun memories together! Best of luck to you all in high school! @ISD109
