Life at Mount Triumph High School is, as ever, challenging. Sometimes I feel like the best training I could have possibly had for this job was growing up here. That way at least nothing these kids say or do while they're acting out really fazes me much. One of our newer students, who was placed in Wind Dancers with me, is probably angrier than anyone I've ever seen come through our doors... but with that being said, I'm not about to let them think for a moment that all that anger is going to make me think they're a lost cause. There's no such thing. Some shells are just a little tougher to get through than others. I'll figure out a way eventually.
Maybe I'm idealistic. I probably am. I mean, let's face it... my parents very clearly have a hippie streak in them. Look at my name for proof of that, never mind the fact that they founded this school. But at the same time this is really just who I am. You know, in addition to be really determined.
Anyway, welcome to all the newer arrivals. Feel free to drop by and talk whenever, even if you aren't part of my group.
