Over a dozen years of teaching second grade in Chicago Public Schools and twenty-seven years of parenting have taught me a thing or two. My kids also helped me cope with grief after the death of my wonderful husband. The humor and poignancy here reflects these experiences. It's dedicated to my students, my family, my community--those who love me and saved me.
You've made a profound impact on the lives of so many children (and teachers). We can't wait to see what this new adventure brings, so keep us updated! Hats off to you Ms. Meredith!
