I step through the doors for my first day of school and remind myself that in this place I am not the student - I am the teacher. I take a deep breath and start down the 5th grade hallway.
My professional attire and teacher introduction secure my place as an authority in the classroom - that is, until one of my students asks me if I go to Blackford High School.
At 5'2" and standing eye-level with several of my students, I'm determined to represent these 22 years of life experience!
