No more teacher's dirty looks. School's out for the summer!
Gone are the days of homework and backpacks and lunchboxes.
No more rushing to the school bus. No more volunteering in the classroom.
School is out!
Happy? Well, kind of. Although, for us, this year is bitter sweet.
Because we had to say goodbye, not only to the school year, but to our
school building as well. We had to say goodbye to our principal, our nurse
and our teachers. Goodbye Walnut Hills Elementary. You have been
very good to us these last 3 years.
Hello Shuler! While we will miss WH and all those amazing teachers,
staff and friends we leave behind, we get to say hello to a new school.
A school very close to our house (too close for the bus!) filled with
a new group of friends, a talented group of teachers, and a passionate
group of administrators. We get to help open the doors to the school
we will (hopefully) call home for the next 9 years!
So, it is with a few extra tears that I say goodbye school year, hello summer!
Here are a few of my favorite things from this school year:
Ella's starting Kindergarten!
Claire qualifying for ELP both semesters!
Ella making so many girlfriends.
Claire helping to form the "fabulous four".
Ella kissing a boy on the playground! Wait, that's not a favorite!
Avery loving every chance she had to eat in the cafeteria.
Volunteering for the school and the teachers.
Going to and actually enjoying the Saylorville field trip!
Finally figuring out a way to keep Ella healthy and at school,
and then discovering how great she can do when given the chance!
Getting to know so many great friends and their families.
PTO, PTO, PTO
Spending so much time at school the principal said he missed
me when I wasn't there! : )
Having the opportunity to head up Teacher Appreciation Week.
Sneaking over to watch Ella just be a kid.
Watching Claire grow up right before my eyes!
Thank you 09-10. You were a good year. See you next year!
The best Kindergarten teacher ever!
Best friends are great!
Real lockers, oh my!
The best 2nd grade teacher around!
