Mrs. Zana’s Class

Above: Enjoying the dinner
Last night Ashley, Wilber, their families, Mr. Carmona, Mr. Kashman, and I were guests of the Masonic Home Lodge in Van Nuys. After a delicious dinner there was an awards ceremony. Ten students from five local public schools were honored. Each teacher got to give a speech and present their winning students. Then, the students received a $200 savings bond and a framed certificate. It was a very moving evening. Most of the Masons were elderly men and seeing how proud they were of my students made me realize yet again how very special you guys are. We could have picked another 68 winners easily! But, let me remind all of you, when we chose our winners you voted as well. Ashley and Wilber represent the best in all of you.
