Welcome Back!
I dont know about you, but I
am very excited to be back
at school this year. There is
a commercial for a major
office supply store that de-
scribes the back-to-school
period using the classic Andy
Williams song The Most
Wonderful Time of the Year
I know that they use it in
jest, but for me, its true.
Im a nerd, and I belong in
school.
I wanted to introduce myself
to all of the students and
parents of AAEC. My name
is Josh Kervin, and I am in
my second year of teaching
at AAEC Estrella Mountain.
I have been in education for
twenty years, having served
as a music and social studies
teacher, as well as a middle
school principal. I am very
pleased to be back in the
classroom., and I hope to be
with AAEC for the rest of
my career.
