The End!

Well, it has certainly been a pleasure having all of you in class.
Individual and Family Dynamics, as you have learned is a bit of a different course...a lot of introspection is necessary, as you learn how you fit in your family, and in your community.
Thank you...for your honesty, and your willingness to share.
I appreciated your Vision Boards, and I have enjoyed watching the changes over the past few months that have taken place.
I asked for your feedback today on the course, and have read them all.
I am glad the projects were relevant. I  hope some of them will help you as you move off island next year. Some of you questioned the relevance of some of the guest speakers. I agree ...not all of them were relevant for each of you. However, I hope you took their stories to heart...because all of them had some experiences you could relate to or will learn from, even if their career did not appeal to you.
As most of them stressed, your outlook changes as you move away from home, and as you start post secondary schools. Many changed their visions within 10 years, as pesonal experiences changed.
Never be afraid of change.

I will leave marked assignments outside my door next week, please stop and pick them up.
