Yay for my friend, Kindra Reid!
Kindra was in my "TAH" (Teaching American History)
class in the district from 2011-2012.
We were in the "Colonial Williamsburg Teacher Institute"
in July of 2012.
We became great friends, because we had foot problems.
One of our teachers, Linda, drove her and I when
there was long places to walk.
I sat next to her at the math Common Core inservice
in April of 2013.
I already had my appointment to talk to Trudy in the District Office
about retirement. Kindra had just had heel surgery, and had
stitches. I heard a snap, and she groaned, "noooooo."
Her stitches had come undone.
That's when I whispered to her, "I'm done!"
That's when I knew! I didn't want to have a ton of foot surgeries
like she had, and not heal properly because you are
always teaching.
But then, I was about 25 years older than her.
Kindra was the very first person to know that I was
absolutely going to retire!
She teaches 5th grade at Harvest, with my former principal, Karl Bowman.
