First Day of School

After five long months, the kids are finally back in school again!  They were so excited to be back and woke up ready to go!  I can't believe we have two in middle school this year.  Parker is starting 8th grade and Eden is starting 6th.  Parker couldn't wait to get back to see his friends.  This quarantine has been hard for him and he was very ready to start his last year of middle school.  Even the thought of wearing a mask all day couldn't lower his excitement about being back!

Eden has been very excited but very nervous about starting middle school.  I am so glad Parker was there to walk in with her and ease some of her anxiety. 

Lily is starting 4th grade.  Her teachers will be Mrs. Adams and Mrs. Glover.  I am so glad she will still be with me at Gerard for a couple more years.

I am starting my 22nd year of teaching.  I am still the ESL and reading specialist and love the kids that I get to work with every day.

Due to COVID, parents weren't allowed to walk their students in on the first day, but Mrs. Adams let me get a quick picture!  There are definitely some perks to be a teacher!

Cory got a quick picture of Parker and Eden walking in together.  I'm so glad they will have one year together before Parker goes to high school next year.

Mrs. Adams sent a picture of Lily's class in front of the school.  All three kids had a great day and can't wait to go back tomorrow!
