I am so excited for school this year for my kids! Benjamin is starting his second year at an amazing preschool and he is thrilled to have his best friend S back in his classroom. (They were separated at the beginning of the summer when S moved up early.) The teachers at his school are great and very child-focused. They really know what they're doing, and that comes from someone who used to do what they are doing for a living!
Frances is starting her last year of elementary school (just saying that gives me hives!!) this year with 4th grade. She has had great teachers in the past, and she does again this year; but the cherry on top is that this yer her very best friend in the whole world, R, is in her class this year!! She's got a lot of other friends in her class as well, and the
boy that gave her so much trouble last year is not in there.
Henry is starting first grade and he loves it so far! He thinks his teacher is great and he's got some good friends in his room as well. Again, one student he had issues with last year is in a different room, so I am thankful for that too.
I am really excited about all the things coming up for them this year! I can't wait to hear all their stories.
You can see last year's pictures
here. Before that I was a slacker mom and didn't post such pictures!
They are SO CUTE!! Our girls just started their last year in elementary school, too, and we are blown away that they are suddenly 4th graders!!-The Dose Girls
ReplyDeleteThe times just flies by, doesn’t it!! Unless of course, you’re waiting for a toddler to eat dinner or use the bathroom!!
DeleteSo cute. And wow - elementary school ends in 4th grade? It's in 6th grade here! Then middle school is 7th and 8th. Although when I was a kid it was 6th, 7th and 8th. Kids today...really growing up faster?
ReplyDeleteI think they did that to alleviate some of the overcrowding in our schools. They do try to segregate the 5th graders from the rest of the middle school, so that helps.
DeleteOh my they are just so adorable! How wonderful that are so comfortable with your preschool and the teachers. It's such an important age. Here's to a great year ahead!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Stevie! They are having a great year so far!
