This past year has been filled with personal trials, but also a lot of professional growth. I've been very fortunate to be a dossier reader, and I've learned much from other NM teachers. I also have been part of a team which received a Microsoft Partners in Learning Grant, and I've spent many, many hours working in the greenhouse as a result. I also got to go to Chicago for training. In September I attended the Innovative Teachers' Forum in Seattle because I had worked with another teacher on a desktop publishing project which won the award.
