#ASDProud: A group of 8th grade students at Abington Middle School recently elected to spend their lunches reading a book called "A Most Beautiful Thing" with their school counselors, Ms. Haynes and Ms. Adam. Yesterday, the author, Arshay Cooper, joined the group for a virtual Q&A, where students could ask about the book that is a moving true story about Cooper's life growing up on Chicago’s West side, and involvement in the formation of the nation's first all-black high school rowing team.

Dear Mrs. Fields, Thank you for supporting our child's learning, interests and well-being every day. You do a wonderful job identifying how each student learns the best and adapting lessons to their needs. We appreciate how you picked up on Katy's passion for dragons and have used that to turn her onto new books. (We are now Inheritance series 24/7 around here). We're all so lucky to have had you as her teacher. Sincerely, Katy Kolb & Family
