Hello!
School starts NEXT week guys! I can't believe we are so close to being back together. This year is going to be quite different from years past but I am hoping for the absolute best! I can not wait to see you all again!
I am very excited to embark on this new school year, as I am sure many of you are as well! This will be my second year as the Athletic Trainer and Sports Medicine teacher at Shelby High School. My first year was a major whirlwind - with football playing from August to the Championship in December (and my first State ring!), going straight into basketball and again - aaaaalllll the way to State (only to have it cut short by the lovely Coronavirus - but hey, we still got Co-Champ rings!), and then ending out my first year... completely online with no Spring sports! Wow! What a year it was. All in all, my first year was a blast. It was hard at first to learn the ropes at Shelby.... Many of my current students can tell you that I was "sometimes" (aka all the time) a bit flustered. So much to do and so little time. I learned to love and cherish the sweet moments that I had with each of you - both students and athletes, all while making sure you all stayed healthy and learned new information about the world of Athletic Training!
While I know this year is going to be very different than years past, I know we will all get through it, together. I look forward to seeing all of you again and cannot wait for you to see the awesome changes we have made since March!
Much love
