June brings another focus
When June rolls around, schools begin to focus their attention on year-end activities, award assemblies in elementary schools, and graduation in high schools. It is an exciting time of year as students complete their grades and prepare for summer vacation.
Graduating students anticipate their “big moment” of receiving their diplomas. It is the end of one chapter and the beginning of the next stage of life. While the focus at this time of year is rightfully on the students (after all, it is their education that so much time, energy, resources, and effort go into), there is another group of people we may miss.
