This year has flown by. It seems like it was February just yesterday and we were still prepping for the PSSAs. Now, there are just six more school days -- and two of them are half days. I'm going to miss all my students terribly.
Anna's paperwork has been sent to Benchmark. I'm hoping to receive more donations from friends and family, and also to put together a few events geared toward raising money. Tomorrow I am going to a local bar/restaurant to discuss an event there. More details on that when I have it! Anna and I are also going to have a yard sale at my house (which is only a few blocks from her own). I think we'll also sell water ice and lemonade. That should generate some more money as well.
If this camp does wonders for Anna (which I really hope it will), I may put together some sort of continuing fund to send a student from our school every year. I want educational opportunities to be available to all students, regardless of their families' incomes.
