From the Mixed Up Files of Mrs. Donna C. Smith

You know E. L Konigsberg got it right on the nose when he described how unappreciated Claudia felt in the middle of her brothers in the humerous tale The Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler. She ran away to the Metropolitan Museum of Art and took one of her brothers with her. She didn't realize just exactly what she meant to her family and how much her parents depended on her to help with her younger brothers.

Sometimes I get wrapped up in everything I'm doing and forget to say how great I think the teachers at Langston are. They work very hard to try and move these kids ahead. Though, I'm just the Reading Interventionist, I don't want to fail to say THANKS FOR THE AWESOME JOB YOU DO!!!! I depend on the classroom teachers to help me better do my job, and I don't want them feeling unappreciated! (I really don't want them to run away!)

You are APPRECIATED!!!

Donna Smith
