Mrs. Lisa Santiago, Mrs. Sarah Temple, and Mr. Daniel Fernandez - Thank you for supporting me when I need support, for guiding me out of the thick of it, and for letting me soar to unbelievable heights.
Ms. Jamie King - Thank you for lending me your ear and for giving your time to teach the students how to write their bios and how to edit their work.
Ms. Jennifer Ponsart – Thank you for caring for and for teaching my babies when I couldn’t. You will be missed.
Sra. Maria De La Cruz-Gutierrez, Mrs. Nanette Graham, Mrs. Estee Tilis, and Tabitha Smith – Thank you for making me smile every lunch break for 30 minutes.
Lisa Beira – Thank you for your amazing, artistic abilities. The set would look amateurish if not for you. Most importantly, thank you for not letting me give up. I love you.
Mr. and Mrs. Gosinanont – Thank you for feeding my babies’ bellies with yummy food, and thank you for donating food to the dance. Not very often you see sushi at a school dance. The kids LOVED it. Thank you for your generosity.
Mr. Ian Wiskoff – Your playbill artwork catapulted us to, “A Whole New World.” Thank you so very much.
Mom, Dad, and Melissa – Thank you for caring for me when I couldn’t care for myself. I am who I am today because of you.
Max and Maya – Whenever I get stressed or down, I think about you and I immediately smile. I love you both more than life itself.
Mr. and Mrs. Jolicoeur – Thank you so much for your generous donation. The students have worked so hard that I couldn’t ask them to give any more. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Evan – I am so glad I didn’t give up. I might never have met you. You once told me that you love me because I am everything you are not. Guess what? You are everything I am not. You complement me and motivate me to be the best version of myself. I love you for that!
To my drama mamas and papas, especially Brett, Bruno, Cory, Gina, Kathy, Laurel, Michele, and Wendy - A very wise woman reminded me it takes a village to raise a child. The same holds true for producing a play. We really have become a family, and I love you guys for all that you do for your children, me, the production, and the school.
Mrs. Horsely – It is amazing how life turns out. I am so grateful to have you as my friend and rock. Thank you for all of your support through all of this.
My Babies - Without you, this would not be a reality. I love each and every one of you. Can't wait for the next show.
