First Day of School 2013

Nate and Neta started school before Xela, Aurora and Graigry. Neta said she was excited and Nate said he was a little nervous. He has a teacher that is new to the school, so we'll see how it goes.

Day 1 School Year 2013-14

Nate heading into 2nd Grade

Neta ready for 1st Grade

After much research, discussion and visits, Eric and I decided to put the three oldest in a nearby Catholic school, Little Flower. There was already one church family that sends their children there. Eric visited with the principal at Little Flower and with the Turners (one of our church families) and we made the move. They started on August 14th, two weeks after Nate and Neta,and they have LOVED it. It will be interesting to see how the rest of the year goes.

The classes just had elections (there is only one class per grade, except in 4th grade - Graigry's grade). Xela and Aurora both gave a speech to plead their cause for being elected this past Friday (8/30/13). By the end of school, Xela was elected 8th Grade class Vice President and Aurora became the 7th Grade Class representative for the Student Council. They are excited.

Like I said earlier, we'll see how the rest of the year progresses! I'd have a picture of them, but Eric took them to school and forgot to do that important piece of chronically family history. ;)
