Last full day of the school year

After today, the kids only have half days remaining this year!  I'll be honest, this is literally the only time of the school year when I don't love having high school students.  At the elementary and middle schools, they are in coasting mode and having fun.  There is no homework, and hopefully no stress to the student and family at this point.  Not the case at high school though.  With finals, it is still all in, and in many ways more stressful than normal.  It's just not my favorite time for high school.  This afternoon was the beginning of finals, but my kids both had band so there was nothing to worry about.  Tomorrow Catherine has Algebra II, and I know she has studied and prepared.  After that she has career readiness, and that is really more of a reflection than an exam.  Thomas though, has science tomorrow and he desperately needs to do well.  Sending up lots of prayers for all of our students!
