First let me offer college shouts to Siobahn Rodriguez who was accepted into the music program at UGA. Hooray! We hope to hear about a lot more UGA acceptances this week.

On a sad note
Cobb County Drama lost a dear member of our tribe this weekend. Our hearts go out to the Kennesaw Mountain High School Drama Department. Ed Deavers, who has long been a faculty member there, passed away Friday. He was a beloved colleague, friend and teacher. He was a tenacious advocate of the arts and a fellow Shakespeare fanatic.
We continue to send our support to the math department right here at PHS after the loss of our own beloved Ms Wilburn.
It has moved me beyond belief to see the outpouring of memories, thoughts and reflections on these two wonderful educators after their passing. Their current and former students have started facebook pages that have hundreds and hundreds of members each, expressing their feelings on their life and their teaching. It just reminds me, once again, that even when it looks like you student types are not paying attention, you are.
