September 28th-October 2nd #everydayheroes

A little bit of Star Academy at Skywalker Ranch!

First, I want to say that although it's fun to get away and it really recharges my batteries to get to teach and learn with grownups, I really miss you guys and the kids. I also try to be all in where ever I am, and don't check my work email during the day...but I am typically on Twitter! Can I just tell you how much I loved seeing the tweets come out of Star on Thursday and Friday? TK at Fairytale Town, Star in Motion, 2nd grade at the library, and paper mache art all popped up on my Tweetdeck and made me smile! I hope you also know that where ever I go, I'm mostly talking about you all and the things that make Star so awesome! I try to bring a little bit of Star with me.
