Beginning of a big week .. on a Friday?



Today was the day that the Unit 5 schools post their class lists for the kids to find out teachers and classmates.  It's bedlam in front of the school at 4p as kids and parents storm the front windows.

Each class list is posted and parents snap photos, I even saw a woman using a telephoto lens from far away since the lines were so long to wait to get to the window!

You'll see that Ellie has Mrs. Kimmel. Although she doesn't really know her, she said she's very happy.  That makes me  happy.  No judgment.  And of all the kids in her class she knows only a few.  We talked about the opportunity that has presented to meet so many new friends!

Reese Anderson that Ellie new back in NY at age 3 is in her class, and Juhi and Kema and Pritika.  A couple of boys too, but that didn't really interest her.  No Lindsay, No Julia, no Olivia but she'll see them nonetheless.

And what I was thrilled about was that she was happy!  Me too!

Ellie, Josh is a Sr. in High School and he now knows all 270 classmates and many many underclass friends. That's the best part of school getting to know all kinds of kids. You will do awesome in 2nd grade. XOXOXO
