"Katie" is guessed as a male, not a female, while "Jen" could arguably be either. They both write at levels far below where I'd expect a high school senior to write.

Is it necessarily a *teacher*, though? Could it be some other adult? Someone's parent, maybe? I have a feeling that, unless someone in the coming class takes the helm, the progress you've made is going to founder. This is clearly an uphill struggle that needs someone strong-willed to lead it. And I'm glad you have a clear understanding that it can no longer be you--you'll need very much not to be distracted next year. Trust me.
