For the first time, I went to our annual AP Scholars recognition program. I went because the principal said to, and because I had not been to the Meyerson Symphony center. Free food wasn’t bad either.
It was a SUPER program. They had great speakers that kept it short and simple. The best was the keynote speaker who had graduated as valedictorian of Pinkston High School in 1991. She went through her history, how she got there and hints from other people.
I’m really glad the district does this. I hope the students appreciated being recognized.
Oh, and why I didn’t I go in the past. When I left industry I swore I wasn’t going to work at a job that took up 24 hours a day of my time. Funny,I reflect on this week, and I only spent about 3 hours doing MY STUFF. It’s Thursday, and Tuesday night I graded and last night I was at the ceremony.
