My daughter’s last day of high school is tomorrow. She has been blessed with some truly amazing teachers. One amazing lady went above & beyond-Chorus Teacher Ms. Lynn Dowding. Amanda is in Vocal Select as well and spent a lot of time with her including a class trip to NY where they were able to see a Broadway show. Ms. Dowding has various groups that she works with about 3-4 nights a week. Here she is with Amanda after their last concert:
Doesn’t she look so proud & happy? Amanda is going to College & wants to be a Music Teacher & I know Ms. Dowding inspired her! At the beginning of the year she gave each of her “kids” a shell, as she collects them. I knew whatever Amanda gave her we had to incorporate Vocal Select & shells. I printed a picture of the class in their dress uniforms & placed it in this beautiful cracked glass globe I picked up at Homegoods, along with Starfish, Sand Dollars & sea glass.
I think this will bring back happy memories of the Class of 2014! Amanda teared up when she saw it, which made me tear up, ugh! It’s going to be a tough week. Thank you to all the special Teachers out there who go above & beyond!
