Now Two of My Graduation Tickets are Promised Away

I just found out that Mrs. B is transferring to Wyoming School District. *tears* for me, at least, choir was mrs. b and mrs b was choir and its going to be so different now. and theres a chance, and it might be a good one at that, that the school board will hire someone to teach just choir and drop show choir, and they can't do that, not now that we finally got our show choir working right. and if we do have a show choir i know it will be run completely differently, and that could be a good thing, but it will be different, and i didn't want this much change for my senior year. and i don't know if i can convince abby to be in show choir if mrs. b isn't going to be the director, and mrs b wont be the one at music awards night giving us seniors dr seuss books and crying for us and even if the new choir teacher is wonderful it won't be the same because she still won't know us and love us as much as mrs b did. what is wrong with our school district that teachers who care for us and love us as much as mr begley and mrs barton did and do are being offered such good offers that they simply cant refuse them? whatever it is, it needs to be fixed, because i cant picture anyone teaching choir but mrs b, i just cant. and i know its too late now, but i dont care. and we wont just be able to talk to this new choir teacher, because she won't really know us yet, and that kind of repertoire won't be established for several months, and we won't be able to convince her to do the songs we want for show choir, or maybe we will, i don't know, but right now it feels like we won't. because i know mrs b. probably would have seriously considered rainbow connection and break away to fit into her theme of dreams for this year, at least would have considered break away, but now we very likely won't even have the theme of dreams, and i don't know, everythings all messed up.

*breathe*

but, it's not like i'm never going to see her again. i'm going up to the sca performance on saturday, where i will see her, and shes trying to arange a saturday for us (not sure who all is included in that, but probly several first period kids at least) to get together, and we can vist her at wyoming the same way we do begley at little miami, although i'm pretty sure wyoming is further away. but it isn't the end of the world, it really isn't. and it could turn out to be a good change for the choir program. and she is coming to our graduation, no matter what. but we really need to do something to keep the other districts from taking away all of our good teachers, because thats what they're doing.
