france merrick for me?

i went to the last pro development workshop about the france merrick grants.. and i was really inspired. i took alot from the presentation about the tuerk house, especially since i have been there before. i feel nthat i can do the same thing that they have done for the francsican center one day! i still want to try out more sites but i really love the center. they need help and more teachers there for art for more time slots. more supplies and a real art room would be so wonderful! they give all of these other  great classes and i dedicated room for art would make our time really special. all the students are really upset that there wont be classes over the summer, and i feel i owe it to them to come back next semester!  i also think that we should start doig stream of conciousness writing, just like they did at the tuerk house. next class i want to take some good pictures and post them on here to remember the good times with my students. they really are so wonderful and i want to pay them back for all we ahve learned together. i made them cookies since it will be our last class as well=]
