*Inspiration* [classroom news, announcements]


I’ll think of you wherever I go.
You’re in my heart, please know.
Remember that you are brave and smart.
Remember to always follow your heart.
Wherever you go, whatever you do,
I will forever believe in you.
The time has come, I must say good bye.
You’re ready for next year. You’re ready to fly.
You can be anything you want to be, this is true.
Don’t forget, I am and will always be
proud of you.
Love, Ms. Lazaro
