First day of school for everyone- 2012-2013
Hannah started her sophomore year at Maple Mountain High School. She has made lots of friends and loves it. She went from Martin High School in Arlington with 6,000 students to her new school with 1,000 students. She has seminary as a class and is much happier with that instead of early morning seminary. (Hannah DID not like getting up at 5:30am) She's made comments of how nice all the students are to the down syndrome or other challenged students. They are all voting for one of the girls for homecoming queen this week. I love the love the students have for those that are not like them.It quite a change from a child who didn't want to get up to one who gets up on her own and is so happy.
Porter started 5th grade at a whopping 5 foot 8 inches!! He loves his school. Sierra Bonita Elementary is only 2 years old. The staff and teachers at both schools have been so helpful and nice. Porter has made friends and is very protective over those who are being bullied. He loves his teacher and thinks its so cool she is a member of our church. He said the atmosphere is very different from his other school. He loves playing soccer during recess.
Claire started 1st grade this year. She makes new friends everyday. I think she might be a little bit bored because they only have half day kindergarten here, so if you think about it she is a half a year ahead of the other students. So hopefully she will be challenged this year by her teacher. She comes home with a new boo boo on her almost everyday. We don't call her "crash" for nothing. She has fallen and tore a hole in her pants,she fell and got a goose egg on the back of her head and gotten stung by a wasp on her finger.
As a mom I couldn't be happier knowing my kids are happy with school!!
