Back to School 2010-11

Ha! This little post has been sitting in my draft box for going on a month now… time to go ahead and post it I guess LOL

Bryce is officially a high schooler now. He is in the Engineering Academy at Vista Ridge HS. VRHS is not our neighborhood HS, so he gets to ride the bus to and from school every day. He seems to like it, and is doing well so far.

Elizabeth and Carissa are 7th graders this year, and one of the highlights is finally having a locker to store their stuff in.

Sarah at almost 5 misses the cutoff for starting kindergarten this year, so we have sent her to preschool 2 mornings a week. She is loving it! She also works on preschool activities at home with me on those days she doesn’t go to school. She loves doing pages in the school book and I have to tell her it is time to quit because she has done enough work for the day.

  

journaling: Sarah was so thrilled to be able to participate in the back to school shopping this year, finally. The preschool didn’t actually have a supply list, but she did need a backpack and a lunch box for dinners at the Dance Center. We got some basic supplies like pencils, glue sticks, crayons and colored pencils to contribute to her classroom too.

  journaling: Sarah was excited to start school this year with the older kids. She goes to preschool at Remington on Monday & Wednesday mornings. She loves it! We also do a bit of preschool work at home on her ‘off’ days. She’s going to be a handful in Kindergarten next year, as she is already writing, learning the letter sounds and has no trouble with most of the activities we’ve worked on so far.

Brenna is in 2nd grade this year. One of the best things so far is having both of her best friends in her class this year ;)
