She married her boss (the principal) at her building. <br /><br />Teachers are people and we deserve to find love. Since we spend so much time at school and with our school families, it's pretty obvious that feelings can develop! I'm glad to hear that your marriage worked out wonderfully!

It was remarriage for me, first for him. I moved into this community to teach, so I was "fresh blood" and brought 3 kids into the school. Everyone was happy with it. *shrugging* You never know how people will react.<br /><br />My sister-in-law married the dad of one of her students. My teacher-cousin married her superintendent. ;-)Kaye Spencerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13530735658588595790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6609030155206406866.post-6023336599498211292014-03-13T13:37:30.575-07:002014-03-13T13:37:30.575-07:00They thought I was shaming the school.
