In the beginning...

In the beginning was a classroom...an empty classroom devoid of color and life. Then came me...the teacher of all this.  I will refer to myself, to protect the innocence of all involved, as Chameleon, or Cami for short.  I am a high school English and reading teacher.  I have spent ten years in the same building sharing my day with freshmen and sophomores mostly.  This year I have the privelage of piloting  a new class with freshmen through seniors.  That has certainly been an experience.  Sometimes we laugh, sometimes we cry, and mostly I yell while they ignore me, because they're teenagers.  But overall, this has been the best experience of my teaching career, as well as the most fulfilling.

I will use code names for everyone, including myself, to protect them.  My name is Chameleon... my students chose this.  I constantly change my look...the hair color, style and clothes. Also, I have this way of blending in the hallways and catching kids when they don't think I am watching.
Please enjoy the trials and tribulations, the pain and joy and the just plain funny times here at My High.
