In honor of To ALL the incredible teachers and coaches of Elliott Carr... a born and raised Wildcat!
When my son was born, people would say to me.... wow, one day he could be a VA student! At the time, I would just laugh because I could not imagine staying in one place (or at one job) for so long. But as the years rolled by, I fell deeper and deeper in love with this place and with my work until one day it was inevitable that Elliott would be a Wildcat. Now, I am doubly excited to wake up every morning because I know that I have the best job in the world, and my son is receiving the best education he could possibly get. I am so grateful to this school and to all of the VA teachers and coaches and mentors and friends that bring joy to my life and to Elliott's life every day.
