Kay, I am pitiful about checking this NING... Please forgive me! I do well to answer email and the occasional Facebook query. One person in a movie recently referred to the number of portals we have to check just to feel rejected. That wasn't it exactly, but it is near enough. Hope you are doing well. We didn't get to talk enough at Conference. You are so busy with TEKS training and I am just so glad that someone of your caliber is a part of the training. You are a dear! Love, Kaye (Hello to Kevin!)

Lynette, I've also been to a lecture given by Mrs. Jago and have to agree whole heartedly with your assessment of her work. She is one of several whose message helps keep me renewed as an educator.
