I was lucky enough to take part in Kindergarten Round Up at YES on March 12th. What an awesome day! Many parents are preparing to send their first born child to school in the fall. Others are "old hat" at this but you can tell it is still a giant step. The soon-to-be kindergarten students we interacted with are the Class of 2027. Think about that for a minute. This Class of 2027 will begin to retire around 2070. How different will the world be then?
This really hits home to me as far as the impact that TODAY'S teachers have on TOMORROW'S leaders. No current YPS staff member will still be working for YPS in 2070 but the work they do with the Class of 2027, and all other classes, will be the legacy that lingers on. You think our jobs are important? You better believe it. Our passion, our strength, our tenacity get to help shape the future. Even those that will retire in 2070!
Wow! Pretty awesome!
