So we were all getting in trouble and she was the one who had to stop it. Personaly Mrs.Kocain was one of my favooite people to talk to at the school. I wish that i would of got to say good bye but thats the way life works. I put my heart out to her working at the school is tuff and having to work with the middle school.
