Youth Frontiers came to speak with the WUHS Sophomores about RESPECT. What a GREAT day to see the kids learning, reflecting, experiencing, and getting to know one another and about the idea of respect. Thanks to Andrew and Preston for bringing the love and lessons.

As a returning artist / parent / guardian / educator one will note that the Interactive Handbook we have used in in the past are dramatically different this year. No longer are we using the 11″ x 8.5″ folder, but we have now changed to a 8.5″ x 5.5″ booklet. The weekly pages are a bit different also with fewer, but more probing reflections about the work you are creating. Let’s look them over TUESDAY of NEXT WEEK.

Welcome to the new school year! I am really excited to begin my 19th year here (not counting the first 4 that I was as a student. That said I have a few new aspects of that are similar but slightly different.

I really look forward to getting to work and getting to know my classes / parents and guardians / and more educators as the year gets started.
With all the challenges that come across in life, there are times where God sends his angles out to remind me that things are good. I know that with the flooding in Louisiana, the earthquake in Italy, wars, poverty, hunger, nonacceptance, and all the other challenges that life offers, my disappointments are trivial. Thank you to all those who reached out to me yesterday (August 23, 2016) with words of love, comfort, and reminders that “My hour has not yet come.”
Thank you to those I do not mention… and a NAME DROP to these great individuals whose desire to continue to make the world a better and more beautiful place. Thank you to Danyelle, Mike, Jacob, Russell, Brandon, Colton, and especially the Queen of “No Fun” Connie. The cards you sent are a wonderful reminder that the challenges I face are worth it because I can work with and get to know the great individuals I do in my life.
This has little to do with Art (unless tying shoes is an act of commentary on something and the intent is there to make it so) but a lot to do with not having you laces all over the place. I made this video in frustration to the handful of Cross Country runners needing to stop during our long runs to tie their laces. Enjoy!
