So I’m over at the Woodward Park Middle School library being impressed by their images of Black role models displayed throughout the building.  I took a picture of a poster board that made note of my Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorors (and adult educator) Septima Clark and Toni Morrison.

Suddenly a familiar book caught my eye in the section of the library that highlighted Who’s Who in Black Columbus.  I particularly noted the New Millenium Edition because of its lovely silver color.  Also, because I remember being included in it as one of Central Ohio’s “On the Rise” professionals back in 2000 (I also have a copy of the book in my Georgia storage unit).  So I scoured the book and there I was on page 108.  I swear I don’t seem to have aged much over the past 17 years.  I also want to note that I was rockin’ the “blond” hair way before Beyoncé!! 👀😂🤣😂

The Seniors brought in some delicious African Sambusa during our the 7th period US History class.  I was the Substitute Teacher benefactor having to cover for the ESL teacher today.  I enjoyed these delicious treats so much that the Seniors gave me the extra leftovers in order to take home for dinner tonight. 🙂  #Winning #ILoveBeingAnEducator ❤

Shortly, I’m going to be doing my end of the school year teaching highlights blog post (with pics).  It will cover my time with the Columbus City School District Pre-K babies all the way up to our 12th-grade young adult seniors.  For now, there are only 7 more days left in the academic school year.  Then, my Summer and Fall adventures 2017 will commence.
