“Here We Go” — Teacher Parody of Disney’s Frozen “Let it Go”

Attention Teachers! You will love this awesome parody of 'Let It Go' from
Frozen' performed by music teacher L. Hayek as part of her Teacher of the Year speech, in Snow Hill, North Carolina. I don't know who won the Teacher Award, but Ms. Hayek sure deserved the one for Talent!

Here are the lyrics (copied from YouTube, written by LH):

The sun burns bright on the playground today, not a student to be seen.
A kingdom of education, and Mrs. Hagan is our queen (she's our principal)
I hear their voices like they were here just yesterday...
We can't keep them out, they'll be here Monday.

Don't let them in, my room's not clean,
I need more time to plan with my team,
Ready or not, they must be taught...
Ready or not...

Here we go! Here we go!
Let's teach that Common Core! (or not?)
Here we go! Here we go!
With assessments galore!
I'm prepared for all the germs they're gonna share!
Bring the school year on...
You get a little bored at home anyway.

It's funny how a summer can make them forget how to walk in the hall,
And even with 10 weeks off, they didn't read at all! (seriously?!)
It's time to see what they can do, to test their knowledge, and hope we can break through!
It's the honeymoon, they all get along...but not for long...

Here we go! Here we go!
Here's hoping their pants stay dry!
Here we go! Here we go!
You know you'll make someone cry.
Here I stand with lessons planned!
Bring the school year on...

(interlude)

Bring on the data, rubrics, and coffee by the pound,
My head is spinning fast with acronyms swirling all around!
Let's hope we teach them more than just what's on the test,
We'll love and teach them well, at least we'll try our best!

Here we go! Here we go!
As we rise at the crack of dawn,
Here we go! Here we go!
Our sweet summer freedom is gone.
Here I stand, class rosters in my hand,
Bring the school year on...
Admit it, we all love this job anyway.
