I’m one of the last classes you’ll teach. I feel honored to be learning from you, but also sad that I won’t get another year. You’ve taught me things that I’ll use for many years to come, and you discipline has shaped me into a better science student than I would ever become otherwise. Thank you for your many years of rich teaching, and I hope you have a relaxing retirement!

Dear Mrs. Anex,

Thank you so much for being our teacher this year although I wish you could have stayed to teach us in 8th grade. This year was the year that I possibly learned the most in a science class!  I'm so sad that you can’t teach us next year. I was really looking forward to it. I hope you have the best retirement because you really deserve it.  Thank you for teaching our 7th grade class.

You are a fantastic teacher that I will always remember and be grateful for. Thank you for preparing us so well for high school. You are one of the reasons I believe I am ready to take in this new chapter of my life. Your class was always so enjoyable with your story’s and funny moments. You have taught me great ways to study before a quiz/test and how to take in the information that I had missed from the last exam. Thank you so much Ms. Anex you are truly an unforgettable teacher.

Dear Ms. Anex,
You are an amazing teacher! I will miss you very much. I loved it when I got to go into your classroom after school and play with your marble runs. I also remember when I was in fifth grade, and you told me about the poison newt. I remember that same day there was a snake under my mom’s ramp and she called you, then you told me a lot of facts about snakes. You will always be a big part of my life, you teach such amazing things. I will never forget you! I have so many memories that I am going to cherish for a very very very very very very long time. You are super awesome! Congratulations on retiring! You have changed my life and so many others. You are going to amaze people! Change lives and keep being awesome!

Sincerely,

Dear Ms. Anex,

I’m Elliott. You may remember me in the future, but not by my name. I’m the last Padilla you’ll ever teach. I have learned so much from you in just one year, and I cannot stress enough that I am sad to see you go. This has been the best year of my life. I’ve had so many memorable experiences and I am honored that I will be the last generation of students you will ever be teaching again. I don’t want this school year to end! The CSMH campus will never be the same without you. I can only imagine how many more memories I would’ve been able to make if you were here for one more year. I never was able to get that elusive A and I will always regret only getting that B+. I hope we meet again someday.

Hey, Ms.Anex, This Is Colin Sutter Glad to be talking to you again; I heard you are retiring, and I am so happy to hear that you are finally getting to take this well-earned rest. Out of all the teachers I have had and probably ever will have, you were in a league of your own. Throughout my elementary career, I was always excited to finally get into your class because you were so nice to talk to and I was excited to learn. Now I can Say Comfortablely that your class lived up to my expectations and far surpassed them. I consider your guidance and friendship given to me during that time invaluable to me. Another thing: not only are you a great teacher, but you are a great person who puts care and consideration into almost everything they do. Additionally, another thing that makes you great is that you are also pleasant to talk to; your invigorating personality never fails to brighten everyone's day. I appreciate what you have done for me as a good friend and a teacher. But also the effort you put into and the results of the countless hours you have spent teaching to make the world a brighter place to live. Your influence on this world will never be forgotten, nor shall it fade away, nor shall your impact on my mind and soul. Some specific times I remember are when we went around a lunch picking through bins for recycling, when we made the marble coasters, Getting to come to see the excellent exhibits during special events, your terrific and inspiring classroom full of interesting kick knacks and vibrate plants, your poor mice for your snake, and the wheel I got for them (do you still have that?) . As well as all the fascinating lessons I learned and participated in (I remember that one day I thought you were going on a tangent about geology but it was actually the whole class). I recall the talks we had about science and the ideas you inspired me to pursue, and to this day, you have played an integral part in the path of education I now choose to follow as I move into college (I am going to the University of california Santa Cruz by the way). All in all I just want to say thank you for the enriching experience you have provided me just by being yourself. I deeply hope you enjoy your retirement and that you Continue to have a great time in your life.

Ms. Anex,

Congratulations on retiring! You have earned it. Your passion for science was contagious and you positively impacted SO many of your students. Looking back at my academic journey, I cannot ignore the massive impact you had. I learned how to study well and I learned foundational concepts I still use today. Mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell! You grew my love for science and for learning about science and I am forever grateful. It is still, by far, my favorite subject. You will be profoundly missed at Charter. I hope you get to have many new adventures and learn many new exciting things in the years to come. Have a wonderful retirement!

Sincerely,

Dear Ms. Anex,

Thank you so much for all that you have done for all your students! You have taught me the most out of all the teachers I have had. I am so jealous of all the students that have had you for 7th and 8th grade. I wish that you were staying one more year so I could have you for 8th grade. I wish you the best retirement and to have the best time listening to Mr. Parker’s music. Thank you for everything that you have done for us!

Congratulations! I don't know where to start. Thank you so much for some of the best science and life education I have ever received. Going back to when I was just a little kid, you've always been welcoming and eager to share your vast wealth of knowledge with me and to anyone willing to take the time to listen. Reflecting back on my two years in your class, I feel astoundingly lucky and privileged to have had you for a teacher. No where else would I have experienced the lessons and projects with the amount of depth, learning, and memories as you provided. To this day I miss your class room and its oddities, the fun nick-knacks, and all the nooks and crannies stuffed with past projects and science supplies. There are so many positive and nostalgic memories I have, the oak gall project being one of my favorites (I still tell that story from time to time). You prepared me in so many ways for the future, I cannot thank you enough. Being your student was a truly special, amazing, and unique experience; one that I will always and forever look back on fondly.

And even though I have long since graduated, I have the honor of being one of your friends. I still continue to learn from you and treasure our lengthy conversations about whatever comes up. Whether it be about plants, or travel, or sharing funny stories, your friendship means the world to me. It's impossible for me to put into words how incredibly, incredibly lucky I feel to have had you as a mentor and friend.

Thank you. Thank you for sharing your time, your knowledge, and the occasional glass of lemonade.

Your friend,
Auggie

It's hard to believe that you're retiring after all this time. You've impacted so many people's lives including mine. I want to first thank you for teaching me in 7th and 8th grade. I'm grateful that I was able to experience the amazing way you taught us. I've always enjoyed those intriguing anecdotes you mention from time to time.  The two years that you've taught me are two years of education that I can't and won't forget. I have learned the many wonders of science through you. Congratulations on your retirement.

Dear Ms. Anex,

It is hard to believe the time has come! I cannot express enough how impactful you have been in my educational career. I remember finishing up a high school chemistry class as a sophomore in high school and sending you an email as I was still pulling from content that I learned in your 8th grade class. The study habits and organizational skills that you instill in your students have stuck with me after all this time, as has the knowledge you have shared.

It has been such a full-circle experience coming back to teach at CSMH. Thank you for your warm encounters each day and the words of encouragement. The passion that you have for teaching is one that I can only hope to emanate. Enjoy your retirement, I hope to cross paths again with you in the future!

Kind regards,

Dear Mrs. Anex,
After many long years, I can’t believe it, you’re retiring. Having you as my 7th and 8th grade science teacher was the most fun I have ever had in science, learning about a variety of different topics that helped me in my first year of high school and I bet will help me all throughout my life. The things that you did to for us was unlike what I had ever seen any other teacher do for their students, pushing them to do their very best and under no circumstance, allowing them to miss an opportunity to learn. You had a fun and enjoyable way of teaching that kept everyone engaged and entertained no matter what we were learning about. The impact you made on Charter School was so great and you will have a legacy that will live on forever. The amount of student’s lives you have changed ensures that. I appreciate everything that you did for me and I will always remember you as the greatest science teacher of all time.
Sincerely,

Dear Ms. Anex,

Congratulations on your retirement!
You have been such a brilliant teacher and I am so grateful that you have been able to teach us for seventh and eighth grade. I am extremely honored to be a part of your final eighth grade class.
From doing the cell theory rap to building roller coasters, you have taught us so many interesting things. Your science class has prepared me for high school in so many ways. Not only have you taught us so much about science, you have also showed us how important it is to always do your best, follow directions, and even manage your time properly. Without having you as a teacher, I would definitely not be as confident with studying science as I am today. I truly believe that you have touched so many people, including me.
I can confidently say that I will miss your class. I will miss your sense of humor, doing experiments with you in class, hearing your stories, and even crunching cans. I will miss you dancing on the blacktop during Friday music or during school dances. I will miss going to you classroom in the morning, and just saying hi, too. My younger brothers are definitely missing out.
There are so many things that I love about you as a teacher. I love how you stay after school so students can complete their homework. Even the test prep class that you hosted in the first semester helped me so much. I think that without that class, I would not have been as prepared to take the entry exam for GECA, nor would I have been accepted into that school.
Your class has always been my favorite- in both seventh and eighth grade. I can't imagine having any other teacher for middle school science.
Thank you so much for everything that you have done. I truly appreciate all that you have done for not only me, but many other students. I hope that I will be able to see you again in the future. Have an amazing retirement!

Sincerely,

Happy retirement Ms. Anex!! I can’t believe it’s been almost a decade since being in your class! I remember that it was your teaching and excitement about science that inspired me to pursue a career in that field. My passion for science has exponentially grown over the years but I will always remember that it was you who lit the flame! I look back fondly on the days of learning about dry ice, owl pellet dissections, and marble roller coasters! I still remember the chorus of the recycling song to this day and it has always encouraged me to take care of our planet. Thank you so much for caring about each and every one of your students and teaching us how to care for one another and our environment. I wish you the very best in your retirement!

Congratulations!!

Ms. Anex,

I'd first like to congratulate you for your retirement. You have touched several lives, and especially mine. I have been so fortunate to have been given the opportunity to be your last graduating class.  I know that my younger siblings will definitely be missing out. Not only have you taught me so much about science and prepared me beyond the freshman high school requirements, you have also taught me about several important life lessons. You taught me the importance of responsibility, following the directions, and going above and beyond expectations. You always made each science class an adventure and very enjoyable. I am going to miss your quirky humor, your story telling, and most of all your class in general. You have opened my eyes to all of science's possibilities and influenced me to pursue a career in STEM. Thank you for everything you have done for me and taught me. You truly are a great inspiration, and will be greatly missed. I hope the next chapter of your life is an amazing one. Thank you.

Dear Ms. Anex,

Here comes a lifetime of weekends, enjoy! We will all miss you, and everything you've done to help make CSMH the school it is today. You have taught us so much about sleep, tarantulas, cells, anatomy, animal kingdoms/classification, climate change, carbon cycle, atoms, elements, dry ice, mining, acids/bases, and so much more! This padlet is full of our final goodbyes, but the wonderful things you have taught us will live on in our hearts and minds forever. Out of all my classes, I would definitely say that your class has best prepared my classmates and I for high school and beyond. Education is one thing, but you gave us so much more. You are the teacher who deserves the loudest applause when you retire! Saying goodbye hurts so much. But it's the perfect opportunity to tell you that you are the best middle school science teacher we’ve all had.

It's truly an honor to be in your last 8th grade class,
Cali Barberi

I would like to say thank you, for everything you've done for me. Almost everyone has that one teacher that comes up in their mind 20 years later and thinks "Oh yeah, she was the best". I believe your that teacher, for me, and all the other students lucky enough to have been taught by you. You've prepared me obscenely well for not just high school but life in general. The school won't be the same without your presence, sense of humor, anexdotes (anecdotes), and interesting and engaging lessons. I'm certain you've positively impacted all of your student's lives, including mine.

It's been a pleasure to have gotten to know you over the past two years and be part of the last class to have the privilege of being taught by you.

I wish you nothing but the best,

I know we've had some little spats over me not doing my work/not turning it in. You were always my favorite teacher don't tell the others. I know I never got the best grades in the whole class, but I was truly able to soak up what you taught me. Whether it was atoms or Charles Darwin's theory on evolution. Without you and playing video games I would have never realized how much I loved physics because of the fun ways you taught us with. I loved your class and if it's ever possible they should clone you to create a second you so that you could continue teaching forever.

Dear Ms. Anex,
I never loved science until I entered your classroom for the first time.  In 7th grade, I thought I would hate science, and I thought it would be boring. When I found out what science is truly about, it quickly became my favorite class. The way that you make sure everyone in class is involved really made me care about this subject. The way that you make us do our homework helps us be prepared for every test. You've never thrown us into anything that we couldn't do and you truly want our success. If there is any class I could do again it would be yours. Walking into your class knowing that it's another chance to learn something that I never knew is the greatest feeling and it couldn't have been done without you. Thank you for everything.

Congratulations on your retierment! Thank you so much being my teacher. I am so sad that you have to go. But I am so happy that I was able to have you for two years. You have taught us so much and the information you have taught us will never leave my mind. I feel very lucky that I am part of the last class to have you for two years. Your stories you would talk about were always entertaining. And the videos you would show us too. I really love that in 8th grade we did so many experiments and projects. I specifically loved the rollercoaster project. It wasn't only fun but it also made me learn about how a rollercoaster works with kinetic and potential energy, acceleration and deceleration. The 7th grade projects were also very fun. But looking into the future, there is no doubt I am ready for high school. Thanks to you I feel like I am very well prepared for physics next year.

I wanted to start off by saying, congratulations on retirement! Thank you so much for being an amazing teacher. I have been eager to have you as a teacher since I was little, and I am so happy that you stayed long enough for me to have you for both seventh and eighth grade. You are an amazing teacher, and you have taught me so much. You have helped me, along with many other students, how to improve study skills, and handle a bigger workload than we were used to, to prepare us for high school. You are an amazing teacher, and all of us will miss you when we go off to high school, and you retire. Thank you so much for being a great influence for so many students!

Congratulations Ms. Anex!

I will miss you dearly when I graduate and move on to high school and later life. I have learned so much from your class and are one of my favorite teachers I've ever had. I've had so much fun learning about tarantulas, dissecting owl pellets, crushing cans, and building rollercoasters!

You've not only taught me how important science is, but how it affects many aspects of our lives daily. I still remember when I was younger when I would stop to talk to you whenever I saw you taking out the recycling or walking around campus! Sadly, many of the younger kids won't be able to find out for themselves about how you are such an amazing teacher!

Thank you so much Ms. Anex for giving me whenever I needed it, never making me feel insecure about my work, and taking the time out of your day to talk to me and giving me hugs daily! I hope you enjoy your well-deserved retirement! Thank you so much for helping me create amazing memories! We'll miss you dearly!!

Ms. Anex,
you are such a phenomenal teacher! In the two years that I have been apart of your class, I have learned so much. You always made class an interactive and fun experience, and I am so grateful for that. I love that you were always ahead of the standard 8th grade curriculum, and we learned topics that were high school leveled. You were always my favorite teacher, and I wish you good luck to your future endeavors.

Sincerely,

Dear Ms. Anex,

Thank you so much for being my teacher. Though I only had you as my teacher for seventh grade, I have by far learned the most in your class and you are my favorite teacher ever. You have not just affected my life, but the lives of all the students in your class. You have taught me always to put in my best effort and try my best. Your class always posed as a fun and interesting part of my day. You stayed late almost every day to post things to help us out. I have had a wonderful time in your class whether it was doing recycling or learning about sleep, tarantulas, cells, and much, much more. I wish you could be my teacher for eighth because there will never be a teacher I learn more from. I am proud to be in one of the last classes you taught and will pass on my knowledge to my younger sibling and those around me. I loved all the projects we did in your class including; the Tarantula Skit, Planet Quercus, and the cell model. I am disappointed you won’t get to teach us chemistry and see us graduate from eighth grade. You have shown me my passion for science and the world around me. I hope you enjoy your long-deserved retirement and live it out to the fullest. Thank you so very much! Best wishes!

Sincerely,

Congratulations Ms. Anex,

It is crazy to think you have started teaching when my oldest sibling was at Charter and will end when my youngest sibling graduates eighth grade. I think I can speak for all of us and say that you prepared us so well for life in general. You helped show us what it looks like to work hard. You taught us the importance of caring for the Earth. You taught us so much that we still carry with us. It truly is the end of a great era and you will be well missed at Charter School, I am sure. Thank you for all that you have done!

Sincerely,

Hey Ms. Anex if you wanted to teach for a few more years Live Oak could use an AP Bio teacher! Seriously thank you so much for all that you’ve done, you started a love for biology I don’t think I would have ever found without you. I am now planning on studying marine biology in college! Thank you so much for being an amazing teacher as well as inspiration for me as well as inspiring me to continue my studies in biology beyond high school and into college!

Dear Ms. Anex,

I will truly miss you when I graduate and move on in life. You are truly an inspiration to me and will always know that you helped me with my knowledge of physics and life science. I hoped that in the future I would come and visit you on a Family Fun Fest or exhibition for my siblings, but I see this will be the last time I will see you. It’s been a pleasure being your student and will truly miss your interesting stories and lessons. I hope you have a great retirement and never stop dancing.

Dear Ms. Anex,
Congratulations on your retirement! With all of the hard work you've put into teaching so many generations of science lovers, you definitely deserve it!
I am proud to say I am entering my last year of medical school and want you to know how large of a role you have played in my life. From weekly recycling to biological pathways, you not only taught me the importance of science, but also the ways it is so deeply integrated into our lives (and you did it with so much extra joy and fun, which your students definitely appreciated!!)
Thank you again from the bottom of my heart for everything you have done for all of your students. I hope you enjoy your retirement and know how much of a difference you have made in all of our lives.

Sincerely,

Congratulations on retirement! You are such a beautiful soul and have impacted every single student, parent, and teacher in a positive way during your time at CSMH. At first I was a little scared to enter your classroom from the stories of my older siblings, but fell in love with science through your fun mnemonics and teaching style. I am excited to let you know I am graduating with my Bachelors of Science in Nursing this June and used knowledge from your class in my studies along the way! Just like the Mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell, you will forever be the powerhouse of CSMH!

It has been nearly a decade since I was in Ms. Anex's class, a lot of me has changed since then, but I will never forget the fun and amazing teacher I had all those years ago.

I still remember sitting in class learning about tarantulas, dry ice, and marble rollercoasters. Ms. Anex has touched the lives of so many people, sharing pieces of knowledge that have stuck for years after the fact.

Thank you so much Ms. Anex for all that you have given me and for all that you have given to CSMH - I do not know how you could ever be replaced.

Dear Ms. Anex,

Congratulations on retiring! You’ve earned it! I learned so much in science this year and I wish I could have you for 8th grade. You have taught me to manage my time wisely and be a responsible student. It was fun when we got to go around campus collecting recycling and when we got to pick what our parent signature box would be for our test corrections. You have helped out our school so much by teaching us 7th graders how to do the recycling and crush cans. Thank you for teaching us so much every day in class and making each day memorable. You are the most knowledgeable, lively, and funniest science teacher I have ever had. It has been an honor to be one of your students. I wish you the best for the future!

Hi Ms. Anex! I'm Baelin Dawes and I graduated from 8th grade in 2012 from CSMH. I have incredibly fond memories of my time in your classroom, and I think that you were one of the best educators that I've ever had! You brought fun into the classroom and encouraged your students to think critically. You stretched us to perform public speaking, to ask questions, to both memorize and reason, and to see the world as a series of beautiful and interlocked systems.
I was well-equipped for science in high school and graduated from Ann Sobrato in 2016 after earning a 5 on the AP Biology and AP Environmental Science exams :)
I continued my education with a BS in Finance from Case Western Reserve University and an MS in Operations Research from Case Western Reserve University. I'm now working at Lockheed Martin Space in Denver, CO and am able to express my passion for the environment and spend my days learning about the incredible universe around us. All this is to say that I'm a better and happier person for having learned from you!
Thank you for instilling values and passion into your students, and thank you for impacting my life in such a profound and meaningful way! You are a phenomenal educator and an outstanding individual, and I feel so lucky that I was able to be your student all those years ago.
Cheers to retirement and be well!

Ms. Anex,

Congratulations on your retirement. You have dedicated so much of your life and time to education and your students that it is truly admirable. When I was a student in your class, you taught me a lot of science, but you also taught me an abundance of knowledge that I have carried with me throughout my life. You taught me the importance of keeping the world clean and recycling, and you taught me that you need to wear beanies in cold weather because most of your heat leaves your head. Is this a random fact that stuck with me? Absolutely. However, this is something that I tell my own students constantly! I was blessed to enter my high school science classes as prepared as I was, and ended up taking AP Chemistry and AP Biology. I wasn't a strong student before, so the fact that I was able to be successful in those classes proves how good you are at being an educator and how much of an impact you made on my life. My sister (Madison) and I used to get so excited when we would go grocery shopping at Nob Hill and run into you. I hope you get to enjoy nature and science into your retirement, and know that you've truly made an impact on your student's lives.

Sincerely,
Cayla Oty (CSMH 2012)

I will miss you as my teacher, you were definitely one of the best.

Ms. Anex,

First of all, congratulations on your retirement! It is so well deserved and I feel honored to be one of your former students. As I’ve gone on to graduate college with a degree in biology, my thoughts return to you and your class often as the beginning of my love for science. You are an amazing, one of a kind teacher that we have all been so lucky to know and learn from.

Also, a special thank you for all of the hours my brother and I spent as children chatting your ears off and naming your many animals - even down to the crickets! Those were times of my childhood that I remember so fondly, and it was so generous of you to have us.

I’m wishing you peace and joy throughout this next chapter of your life!

Dear Ms. Anex,

I'm very sad to have to see you go. You have always made the school a little brighter (and cleaner). You have never stopped giving to this school and the students that learn here. The things that you have taught me throughout the semester and the fun ways that you chose to teach them have been great. I'm going to miss the jokes you make, the stories you tell, and the joy you bring to science. This school year has been incredible, in part, because of you. You have been part of what made me love science and school. I'm sad that you are leaving, but happy I got to have such an amazing science teacher. Thank you so much for helping us learn.

Thank you Ms. Anex for all the lessons you taught me. It was really nice and fun and interesting when you taught us like when you talk about things you heard about or interesting facts about organisms. It was always interesting to hear. I haven't been at this school for long, but you really care about us like telling us to go to the lost and found to find some of our stuff if we lost it and you also care about our campus a lot like going around looking for trash and recyclable stuff and you also make recycling days fun like letting us crush cans. It was really fun with you here on campus. I wish you could teach me chemistry in 8th grade to hear some fun facts about accidental experiments but sadly, you can't. I'm going to miss you Ms. Anex. We are all going to miss you. But, I hope you enjoy retirement Ms. Anex!

Dear Ms. Anex

Hello Ms. Anex, I'm very sad to see you go, you were the best science teacher that I've ever had. You've taught me so much and I wish I could have had you for more years.

You've taught me so much in the little amount of time you've had me. No one could ever replace you. I hope you will still come and see us at Friday music. Maybe also drop in at our classes sometimes, to make sure we're learning enough. I have a story to tell you. When I was in 6th grade I was nervous. Everyone told me that you were scary and mean. Turns out you were none of those things. My brother told me some stories about your teaching, and I doubted the truth. I suddenly believed all of those stories on the first day of school. You welcomed us with open arms. In true Ms. Anex fashion we took notes on the first day of school, and then took a test on the 3rd day of school. Through all of these months of you teaching me I've learned more than any other teacher, ever! Thank you Ms. Anex, this school will not be the same without you. No one could ever replace you.

Thank you for being such an amazing teacher and teaching me so much stuff throughout 7th grade. I'm sure my sister was very happy to have you teaching her so much when she was in 7th and 8th grade and I wish I could’ve had you in 8th grade also. I hope you have an amazing retirement and live the rest of your life great. My favorite parts about 7th grade science were when you taught us all about tarantulas and when we rehearsed our cell theory raps. I definitely think that you had the best way of teaching students and making them learn a lot about things, also I appreciate you for coming to school and teaching me so much everyday.

I’m very happy that I was able to be a part of your class before your retirement! It’s crazy to me how much I’ve learned this year from your class and how I remember every little detail. Your teaching style is so awesome and I know everything I learned I will use later on in life. I’m so devastated about your retirement but I’m thankful I atleast got you for one year. I know for a fact that you made a big impact in my life and many other students. You always helped me to understand assignments more clearly and I appreciate that a lot. I wish you well for the future and this new chapter of your life. Thank you for being the funniest, most energetic, and adventurous science teacher ever! I wish you the best!

Hello Ms. Anex,

Congratulations on your retirement! This year for 7th grade I was very lucky to have you have you as my science teacher. I haven’t had someone that teaches quite like you. You make lots of examples that are easy to follow. Thank you for staying here for the 20 years that you have. Your retirement is very saddening. I wish I could have had you for another year to teach us physics, which I find interesting. You always made your lessons fun and interesting. I hope you will have a fun retirement with your friends and family. I know you will have a great life in the new chapter of your life.

Dear Ms. Anex,

Thank you for teaching us science. I feel like I never truly enjoyed science until I got into 7th grade, and now science is one of my favorite subjects. I would've loved to have you until 8th grade, but I wish you the best in the years of your retirement. I appreciate that you came to school every day just to teach us science. I am confident that I will remember you even when I retire. I am sad to see you go, but I hope you make the most of your retirement and enjoy the rest of your life to the fullest. Congratulations on having a very successful career and I know that all of your students are happy for you. I am sure that I will use the knowledge that I have gained in your class for my future in life. From learning about sleep to tarantulas to learning about evolution to learning cell theory, you have helped us gain the most knowledge of any teacher I have ever had. Hopefully the recycling at this school continues, in your retirement. I always enjoyed hearing all the stories of random science facts that always fascinated the whole class. It will be sad not learning chemistry and physics in your class next year, but I just wanted to congratulate you for all your hard work in the many years you have taught. Thank you Ms. Anex.

Thank you for all the work you did for me in science. You've helped  me out  so much around science this year and opened a portion of my brain I didn't know I had. Without you, I wouldn't be the student  I am nowadays. My favorite part of science was when we were learning about tarantulas. I also like how you would call me John Snow Coat Anderson. You had such an enormous effect on my life even though I have had you for so little time as a teacher, I'm beyond any doubt of it. I appreciate everything you have  done for us within the 7th. Congrats on your retirement, and I trust you have got a calm life ahead now.

Thank you for being such a great teacher and I will always remember your analogies to cars. Out of every teacher that I have had at this school you have definitely taught me the most. I was never too fond of science until I came into your class. Your jokes and stories were very entertaining. I think that your recycling program is very thoughtful because many people don't even think about recycling and just throw things in the trash without thinking about it. I will always remember you as my favorite teacher. I hope you have an amazing retirement and have a relaxing rest of your life.

Dear Ms. Anex,

I can’t believe that you are leaving us! No other teacher can come close to being on the same level as you. I am going to miss your “Sexy Little +1’s”, your “Mr. The Good” ’s and your humor. You have touched all of our hearts in one way or another. I am going to miss you so much. To me, this feels like the end of a movie. Happy, but also sad. I'm going to miss you so much! I’m going to miss your cough ancient cough computer, recycling out on the grass, and your sweet treats after.

This is going to be a dramatic change for me, the grade, and the entire school alike. It will not be the same without you. But your years and years of teaching have changed so many brains and hearts alike, you have changed so many people. I’m going to miss you Ms. Anex, please come and visit next year!

While I would seem insensitive on the topic of retirement and the amount of effort that was put into it, I find it very sad that you cannot teach even more because you are the most academically awakening teacher I have ever had and your methods of teaching have influenced the way I look at school. Most days I am even excited to go to school and participate in your class because every day has something that is entirely unique in store. While it doesn't seem like I focus in class I am actually really interested in what you teach and I am confident that your teaching will influence my learning all the way through college.

I think these things will stick with me from now on. I hope you have one of the best retirements and live a long happy life. This school will never forget you. I really hoped you would stay until I'm in eighth grade so I can learn chemistry, now that I think about it I think this is good for you. This will give you a break from staying her super late grading and recycling. I hope that even after you retire you still take care of the earth and recycle.

Dear Ms. Anex

Congratulations Ms. Anex on retirement. Thank you for being such a great teacher. I know that my sister Isabella Lim learned a lot from you in 7-8th grade. After having you for one year now I’m a little bit jealous that she had you for a teacher for two years. I learned a lot from you this year in 7th grade. You're an amazing teacher and I appreciate you coming to school everyday to teach us about a whole lot of interesting stuff. Even after the school day you stay at school late to post stuff on Classroom and Jupiter to help us with homework, and to make sure we know everything we need to know. It's not just for me, it’s for the whole school too. You even have your own recycling program thing that you do for the school. I enjoyed everything that we did this year. Starting with sleep info to now learning about mammal reproduction. I look forward to your class everyday, and now I am sad that you will not be teaching me anymore. I hope you enjoy the rest of your life in retirement. I will never forget you as one of my favorite teacher

Hi Ms. Anex,

I am forever grateful to have you as my teacher. Congratulations on your retirement, you have made an impact on my life and every other student you have taught. To be honest I was nervous on the first day of science class, but soon enough I came to realize that you were the best teacher in school! I can't imagine what my life would be like if you hadn’t taught me. I give thanks to you for your time and effort in our class (even with the crazy ones). Also in your class I didn’t just learn science, I also learned how to show respect, especially to your teacher. I am forever grateful to be one of your students and I will always remember what I have learned in your class. Congratulations again.
