This picture is from my students at Tsunezumi Junior High (front left to right: Miki, Aya; back: Yuki, Soichiro, Rusty, Tomomi, and Kumiko). One 9th grade and one 8th grade student took home an award and a chance to go to the next level of the competition in two weeks. It was cool to see their progress and be a part of it. This moment is one of teachings great rewards
