Here Come the Kids

You could feel the excitement in the air as the brand new 7th graders arrived.  We host a variety of activities for these kids and we make sure they have the building all to themselves until lunch.  It's a technique that has worked for years.

Look how jazzed they are

Getting ready for their first presentation from staff

Heading into the tennis courts for some fun team-building social activities




One change to our routine was the result of the gym floor being replaced.  We usually greet the 8th and 9th graders in the gym as they pick up their schedules.  Today they headed right from the buses to the football field.  I have to admit this was MUCH better.  They could be louder and run around as they saw all their friends.  Hope this revision becomes a staple (weather permitting of course).



I will be going home and heading to bed early as I spent about 5 hours in the UW ER last night with my friend Paul.  My lack of sleep is already hitting me.
