On Thursday, the parking lots will be filled once again with cars and children flooding into classrooms, ready for the first day back. However, for teachers, that first day back in the classroom started earlier this week.
“I’m pumped, I came in early because I couldn’t wait to get back into the classroom,” Sweet said. “I don’t ever feel like summer is too short, I am always ready to come back so I’m ready for the first day and to meet all the kids and families.While the official first day back for teachers was at the start of the week, Sweet eagerly opened her classroom doors to prepare for the new school year last Friday.
This year will kick off Sweet’s seventh year of teaching. Sweet grew up just down the street from Gladys Wood and attended all her academic years in the Anchorage School District. Following graduation, she attended the University of Alaska Anchorage.“I have definitely wanted to teach since I was in first grade,” Sweet said. “I felt like my first-grade teacher was amazing and I just thought like I kind of want to do what he does, he is so cool.
“The students learn six words every week, and so these are all those words cumulatively. By the end of the year they know all the words up there,” Sweet said.
