The big moments such as Sloppy Joe Day(s), musical shows, and sporting events of course hold weight in my memory, but I think the normal day-to-day events are what I think about the most. Learning cursive in second grade, math class with Mr. Tanguay, music lessons with Mrs. Pagnucci, essays with Mrs. Wiesinger, and just walking the halls of the entire school. Those are things I'll never forget (and I think the layout of that school is forever ingrained in my brain!)

3rd grade teacher Mrs. Hearl birthing the decline of my self confidence. I didn’t make enough [Accelerated Reading] points to go to the pizza party and she told me she’s never been so disappointed in a student before and made me sit with the 2nd graders while everyone else had a fun pizza party :-)”
