School Open House

We had school open house two weeks ago.  We arrived a little late and missed the information the principal had in the cafeteria.   Good or bad- we made it to an information session with Mrs. K.   She did both of the classrooms because Mrs. W was out with her baby girl.   (For the last two weeks, Mrs. W has been gone because her daughter, who is one, was in the hospital.  Her daughter is doing fine and she was back on Monday.)   Mrs. K has been teaching for 25 years and I'm very impressed with her style and love of teaching.   The kids had my camera and proceeded to take pictures while Aunt Ro, who was in town visiting, and I talked and looked at their classroom. 

Mrs. K and the girls

Hadlee got a progress report last week.  I'm not sure if the other two will get one because Mrs. W has been out.   Hadlee was so proud that she got an "E" in reading, which means that she exceeds grade level expectations.   Her only goal for first grade is to be on AR......I've tried to tell her that AR isn't everything and she's reading fine.  She's doing well even though she's not at the same level as the other two, I will say that a little competition is going to work in our favor with this situation. 
Mrs. K also put in her comments that Hadlee is a great role-model for the class.   Hadlee is a sweet, loving child and loves to please.  Keep up the great work. 



The traffic situation at our school is terrible.  Our new principal has made the car lines one of her main priorities.     It wasn't a good situation to begin with but now she's set up all these cones to block off cars from creating new lines and has created a mess of different problems.   Now the crazy people are finding a way to break the rules.   It definitely has tested my patience in the morning.   Now when we turn into the entrance of school, we pray about our day.   I'm not sure why we haven't done this before....what a great way to start the school day. 


She's called the cops to help out.....don't know if it worked.



If we keep having accidents at the entrance/exit hopefully something will be done.   Just by looking at this picture you can see that we have no turn lanes into the school.   The sad thing is Caterpillar, which is the building to the right, has their own turn lanes.
