“The most important day of a person's education is the first day of school…” — Harry Wong.
Today is my 50th first day of school — twenty-two first days as a student and twenty-eight first days as an educator. Here’s what I love about the first day of school:
New school supplies — Even though I’m virtually paperless, I still look forward to a few pretty new notebooks, post-it, and writing implements.
New clothes and shoes — I wore a uniform for eight years and as I get older, I have adopted a new uniform of sorts, but it’s still fun to at buy new shoes, accessories, and key pieces to add to my capsule wardrobe.
New spaces — A clean, beautiful space does a lot for my well-being. I have always loved decorating my locker, classroom, or office. (See featured photo for my current office space.)
A new start, another chance to contribute, to create, to compete, to connect, to commit, and to care. #psdgraduateprofile
