The date for our yearly Desert Path Pride Spirit Week is rapidly coming and the Student Union has been discussing some new ideas about how to celebrate school pride this year.Since Spirit Week is the week before scheduled testing. we would like to suggest combining( 结 合)student festivities( 庆祝活动)with preparation for testing. We want to assure you that all activities would focus on learning while providing fun for those to take part. Our plan for the week is as follows: Monday—Math Day would include fun math games in the classrooms and school-wide activities such as guessing the number of bricks in a building. recording times at relay races, and competitions for multiplication facts. Tuesday—Reader's Roundup would focus on books and authors. Students and teachers can come dressed as their favorite author or character from a book.This day would be great for the contest of “Best Reader”.Older students can share reading time with younger aged students. Wednesday—Writer's Day would show student writing from the competitions (held a week ago) for types of writing like poems and stories.Of course there would be prizes given for excellent writing in each type. Thursday—No Fear Day would be where we have our exciting assembly( 集合) to get us ready for testing.The Student Union could even put on a short play showing how all of us at Desert Path are ready for test week. These are just a few of the ideas we are asking you to consider.We would like to have the opportunity to meet with you and discuss our plan and to hear what ideas you may have for Spirit Week.

Several former teachers were on hand to tell stories about the old days Ms. Mabel Yates, the English teacher for fifty years, was wheeled to the park. Some eyes rolled and there were a few low groans(嘟囔声) when Ms.Yates was about to speak.

Although I haven't appeared in person. I have attended your college graduations, weddings and even the birth of your children, in my imagination. Ms. Yates paused and started crying a bit.

Regardless of our motives(动机),I can see that you have all been successful in your chosen path.”"There is no greater comfort for an educator than to see the end result of his or her years of work.
