I am grateful that we finished the summer on "high" note...although Monday morning's wake up times are going to be soooo early! Originally we were told that Catherine & Robert's bus would be arriving at 6:10, but we received a phone call last week that moved it back to last year's time of 6:35/6:40. Robert doesn't plan to ride the bus, but Catherine will be. Their school is starting 5 minutes earlier and getting out 10 minutes earlier, while Thomas's school begins 10 minutes later and gets out 10 minutes later. He is not currently scheduled to get off the bus until 4:45, which is a real pain for those of us that have older kids in activities. There may be many days that I arrive to pick him up at school in order to get us out the door and going!
Last evening we were able to meet Thomas's teachers. As a fifth grader, he now has "team" of teachers and not just the one. I am excited about the year for him. Catherine received her schedule in the mail, and although I don't know all of her teachers, I am pleased about the ones that she did get. Robert received his schedule at a meeting, although we already knew which teachers he had because Andrew had gone into guidance last spring and gone over the schedule with the counselor (a "perk" to being a teacher in the district).
I am so grateful to be settled (or as much as we'll ever be) and to be looking forward to the school year!
