I am currently at Knox Trail for my first year, it's very fun and exiting but I really miss Wire Village. I loved and miss every single teacher I had there from kindergarten to fourth grade. They made learning so fun and I miss them all so much. If any of you are reading this, thank you so much for preparing me for middle school. I will never forget how caring you all were.
