First Day of School

Really. Where did this summer go? We have had a busy and fun summer and I am not ready to send the kids back to school yet. I really needed a few more weeks but, here we go...

Who is this big kid? Ethan starts 4th grade this year! He is in Spanish immersion and has Spanish for half the day with one teacher (Sr. Smithee)and then the other half of the day is spent with his English teacher (Sra. Luiz). His Spanish teacher is very strict about only speaking Spanish in his classroom in fact, if you have to go in to talk to him you need to have your student with you so they can translate! Or, he will schedule an appointment with you.


Sydney starts 2nd grade this year!! She is also in Spanish immersion and this is the first year of duel immersion at their school. So, one day she will be with her Spanish teacher Sra. Duran and the next day she will be with her English teacher, Ms. McPherson.


Anna starts kindergarten at the new Elementary school just down the road from our house. She will have to decide wheter to go with Ethan and Syd and do Spanish or stay at her school and do Mandarin. Whoa!
