Collective

We had an all school assembly first thing yesterday when the band, orchestra, and chorus performed their annual spring concert. Monday morning found the students bleary and subdued, which might just be the optimal middle school audience mode. 

There was only a low buzz as we waited for the program to begin, and from my vantage point, stage right in the second tier standing against the wall, I could see all 800 of us-- students past and present, colleagues new and old-- for the moment all in one place, and my heart swelled just a bit to be part of such a thing.
