AAPS Teachers at Welcome Back Day

I'm not sure who was more excited about the start of school, Superintendent Todd Roberts, or the auditorium full of teachers, support staff and administrators he addressed at Pioneer High School Tuesday morning.
The room and hallways were buzzing with raw electric excitement -- despite the (way too) early hour.
For anyone who knows me, it takes something special to get me out of bed at 6 a.m., (I'm the queen of late night), but the opportunity to introduce myself to as many of the district's teachers as possible, met my strict criteria.
Here's a sampling of photos of the people I met.
