A list of people I am thankful for

       1. My teachers at Landmark- From Mrs Wood who taught an awesome broadcast journalism class and for challenging me to think outside the box. Christie Herbert for being an awesome professor and always having faith in me and being one of the people to make me want to make a difference in a persons life who is in need of support. I also have to give a shout-out to Robert Fay who is in heaven now. He made an imprint on my heart for sure though and made me love writing. My coach Deb Berigow for encouraging me and never giving up on me and helping me in my time of need. To Mrs Stanley for doing awesome alumni activities. I love having the chance to go back to LMC when I can. I wouldn't be who I am today without being a student at LMC.
     
       2.  My teachers at NAHS- From Pete Concannon who was the first person I met when I walked through the doors as a freshman. I can't tell you how scared I was but he made me feel better. He encouraged me too, he pushed me to believe in myself when I didn't have faith in myself. I want to say thanks to Mrs Grassis too who worked in the office. I volunteered in the office when I was a senior and she always supported me. We could talk about anything. I saw her last week and it was like I never left. I know I sound like a broken record but I love seeing everyone at NAHS. The connection I have there and within the school system is unique. I know some people including me might think my connection is strange but I don't care. I know how much the staff and faculty care about me within the schools. It would only make sense if I were to make a difference too.

3. NAMS- I can say without question the same thing as I said about High School. I thoroughly enjoyed my time there. I may have struggled but the support I had from the teachers and staff was wonderful. Ms Raimondo was and still is an amazing support to me. I was bullied pretty badly and she was always there for me. I can always touch base with her. Even though I know she is busy. I can always count on her to check back in when she can. And also I have to say a big thanks to Mrs Cantillon for being a support to me. She never gave up on me and supported me and made me feel good about myself. I don't know why I have the strong connection that I do to all three schools. But I care about them all equally. I hope one day I get to work in the North Andover school system. It would be a dream come true. Even if I did something after school it would be so much fun.

4. My mom- My mom is pretty awesome!!! I may be a pain in the rear end but she loves me unconditionally and will do anything for me. I am so thankful to have her in my life. What can I say she's my mom. She took care of me when I was sick, she never gives up on me either. I am so blessed to have her in my life.  I don't know what I would do without her.
