To my first class,the 6/7th Graders of East Academy:
Our time together is coming to an end. But this is not goodbye. This is thank you. You will forever be special.  You are The First. You have played an amazing role in shaping who I am becoming as a teacher. Thank you. Don't forget that you are Eikons, and so is everyone around you. Don't forget to think. Don't forget PEMDAS and This is why I'm hot. Keep a paperclip nearby. And don't ever stop pursuing your personal legend. I dedicate this short video to you. I love you.
Mr. Shanklin
