Well almost all of our mushers have finished the race. By the end of weekend they all should be into Nome. It’s been fun moving our mushers down the hallways each morning and following the updates when we come to school. I hope the kids enjoyed learning about it, but more importantly the themes’ we talked about each day. Determination, dedication, perseverance, and team work. Not to mention having the courage to try something hard even if you fail. When we get out of our comfort zone we grow and learn.
