This Friday marks the last day for us at Clinton Street. I know you’ve heard things like this before, but this time it’s really, really happening.
Some of you, who’ve been at Clinton for 2+ years and teachers who’ve taught at this location for many years, are going to miss this well-worn, old building. To be sure, it has a unique collection of creaks, groans, pops and hums. There are the drafty windows, the crowded, noisy halls and the two facilities on opposite sides of the street that make our school at Clinton Street one of a kind.
I don’t think I’ll be missing those things myself, but perhaps some of you will.
Of course, McAuliffe Charter School is much more than the building we are housed in. McAuliffe is an intricate blend of different people, each adding his or her own contribution to the symphony that is our school. I don’t think I’ll be missing those things myself, but perhaps some of you will.
But, change happens and when we begin the new year, we’ll be in our new building.
What should we do in our new location to make it a “home” for us?
This is an opportunity to reboot the school year and make changes to your lifestyle as a student. Do you have changes you’d like to make?
