First Day of Kindergarden

Aug 24, 2009 08:13

Virginia has officially begun her first day of kindergarden! We got up early, got dressed, ate, even brushed her teeth and then headed off to school. She wore her new Fancy Nancy backpack and carried her new Kai-Lan lunchbox. She is so excited. I got a big hug and then she was meeting her teacher and the other students. She has her own locker ( Read more... )

Yay for kindergarten! Is it every day? (That's something we'd like to do at Newton, but haven't the room for it. But in the new building we will, so maybe we'll get that implemented eventually.)

It is all day every day. My sister lives in MN and her son goes half days for kindergarden. You have to pay for full day but that had a waiting list. He starts after Labor Day but Texas allows the schools to start earlier. Actually, in past years it has in early August. It is a bit late this year. I was suprised to see that you were starting school so early. I was a bit envious as well.

Our early start is due to the destruction of our building set for May 12. We gotta be out before then! Then we just wait for the new one to be done, which should be late August, early Sept of next year.

Sentimental about the old bldg, but excited about the new!

Cute pictures! She's growing up way too fast but it's fun to see her excited about school. Hopefully, she'll always feel that way. See you soon. Bonnie

We don't start until the 9th... and I think we get to start later in the morning than you (thank goodness). Orientation "picnic" Thursday evening which will be the first actual anything.
