A few weeks ago, Principal Bozarth asked if I would be willing to host a teacher-intern from Missouri State University in Springfield. Next Wednesday will be the first day Mrs. Friend will visit our class - the start of about ten weeks of her observations of our classroom management and instructional skills. Her clinical supervisor will also visit a couple of times to observe her teach a lesson.
Not only is Cheyenne Friend going to intern in our class; she actually attended our school a years ago, and she substitutes here. In her first email to me, she flatters us (and mentions she knows a couple of my former students):

I received the news this morning and I simply cannot thank you enough for taking me under your wing and letting me be in your classroom. I am so excited about being placed in a class that has such a wonderful reputation and (as my younger sister and husband remembers) a fantastic teacher! Really, thank you. I am there to support you in any possible way that I can and I hope that you will take advantage of having the additional support.
The class and I are excited to help Mrs. Friend in her studies and development as a future teacher.
