VIEW FROM THE FRONT OFFICE WOW – where did the 2014­15 school year run off too?  Before we know it, we will hear 

Pomp and Circumstance and send kids home for the summer. It has been an exciting year, filled with many successes and also some second­guesses.  Overall, looking back, it has been a successful one. 

This past year, we have had the opportunity to hear some amazing speakers.  One that left his mark with me was St. Edward native Scott Shanle.  His three main points hit home and I would like to put my spin on those points. 

The first point is remember where you have been.  There is something to say about experience.  As a beginning teacher, I did not have that experience to draw on once I had my own classroom.  Everything was new to me and I had to experience the good with the bad.  I soon discovered what was taught in college was not exactly how it happened in real life.  Over time, I was able to recognize this and draw on my experiences to help ford the way. 

However, this point also has a flip side to it.  One could also take this as remember where you came from. As Bon Jovi sings,” Who says you can't go home. There's only one place that call me one of their own.”  We must always remember where we came from.  Those people, places and things have shaped us into who we are today.  Our experiences, where we came from, have helped guide us on our fantastic journey and we must never forget that. 

We must also remember who we are.  One must never lose sight of who they are and what they stand for.  Each one of us has a central core of beliefs, beliefs that are developed from where we’ve been and our experiences.  These core beliefs help guide us on our path in life. However, we must not deviate from these core beliefs, these principles.  Compromising these core principles will lead to forgetting who we are and what we stand for.  It will also deviate us from where we are going – it will push us in the wrong direction. 

Throughout all of this, we have to keep focus of where want to go.  The experiences that we’ve had have helped shape our core, but we must have a focus in mind.  This translates into goals. We must always remind ourselves, “OK that’s fine, but where do I go from here. How does this help me in MY future?”  Without a clear focus of where want to go, we will be like petals in the wind – blown about by forces we cannot control.  This can also shake us from our core beliefs and lead to a destructive path. As we go through life, each stage in our lives is a new chapter in our book.  No matter how tough it gets, we need to push through those tough times, keep our focus and maintain our course.  

In a few weeks, we will say goodbye to 14 seniors and three foreign exchange students.  Our goal is to help set these 17 young adults on that righteous path – helping them set a translucent focus of where they want to go. We also want them to remember where they came from and who they are. Seniors (and foreign exchange students) always remember, who says you can’t come home? I have enjoyed having each one in school and getting to know each as individuals.  As one of my college professors used to say, “Study hard.”  I would like to add one point to that tidbit of information ­ enjoy what life has to offer.  Take the talents you have been given and expand on them.  Don’t do just enough to get by, do what it takes to get ahead.  Be the leader of the pack – the view is much better ☺ 

Thought for the month ­ In life, what appears to be an end is actually a new beginning.
