Last Day of School

Yesterday was the last day of school for the students and today was Alan's and my last day of school.  It has been a great year for Alan and for the rest of us it has been a year of transition and adjusting.  Andrew and Anna have learned that families like ours are very rare at their new school.  They have both been shocked by many things.  They have shined their lights the best they can at school.  One of Anna's teacher's told me that some kid said some outrageous thing out loud in class, and Anna's eyes got real big and had the expression on her face of "I can't believe I just heard that!"  She giggled and said, "I know Anna!"

I asked Andrew and Anna what their favorite thing was about this year.

Andrew: Music, PE, Recess, Lunch, Field Trip, Field Day and Just the Facts Celebration.

Anna:  Music, Reading, Recess, Science, Lunch, Field Trip, Field Day, AR Field Trip.

Abigail: Getting to teach my own children my love and passion of Music, getting many opportunities to have lunch with Andrew and Anna and opening the eyes of many students to the world of music.

Alan: Getting to do what he wanted to do as far as Athletics and Administration.

Next year I will not get to teach Anna.  I will move to the High School and Middle School and will only be at the Elementary for fourth and fifth grade.  I will miss teaching Anna but look forward to getting back to the age group I prefer.
