High School Memories
Who was your favorite teacher/coach and why: I guess I would have to say Mr. Huizinga - because he's my dad. :)
What high school experience do you still laugh about: The time that the power went off and school was dismissed. However, it came back on right as everyone was leaving. I can still picture Miss Lubbers standing outside trying to call everyone back in. It didn't work, we left anyway.
What is your fondest memory: Having my father for my teacher.
Do you remember a senior prank: No, I don't remember our class doing one. That doesn't mean it didn't happen. Where you a part of it:
Did you make a friend(s) you still keep in touch with: Jen Knott and I stay in touch abit - our students have worked together on some projects and that has been a neat experience.
We are now 33 – give or take a year. What age do feel: I am 34, and I guess I feel it, too. High school seems like a LONG time ago. :)
Post High Experience
Best piece of advice received in the last 15 years: Take everything to the Lord in prayer.
Your proudest accomplishment: Although proud may not be the word for it, having the priviledge of teaching my nieces and nephews is a blessing that I will always treasure.
Favorite thing about your current life situation: Having the summers off. :)
Most important life lesson learned (humorous or serious): God is good, all the time.
An issue you are passionate about and why: Our Protestant Reformed Christian schools - what a blessing God has given us in providing these schools where our children are taught in the light of His Word.
