Today, somewhere in the Great State of Texas, a 22-year old teacher is facing a class of students for the first time.

Today is also the first day for a new assistant principal, taking on administrative responsibilities.

Today is the first day for that Early Childhood tyke, clinging to mom.

Today is the first day for that English Language Learner to be immersed in a new culture with people speaking a language she doesn’t understand.

Today is the first day in the new school for that new kid hoping to get off to a good start.

Today is the first day for all of the kids hoping that that they have a nice teacher….and for all of the teachers hoping that they have nice kids.

Here at Walsh Gallegos our thoughts are with you. We’re here to help the people who help the kids.  Let’s make this a great year.
