Back to School
Well - both kids have started in their new schools this week.
Beverly is attending Connected Academy. She's taking Drawing and Painting this quarter (her school does 4, 4 class quarters per year) and really likes it. Her favorite part about the school is the cafeteria so far which is a bit perplexing since the school only has 80 students. My guess is that since the building also houses the North Fulton Teacher's Academy that they upgrade the food for the teachers. She's taking 2 on-line classes this quarter to finish out her 10th grade requirements and will be taking German and Japanese on-line next quarter.
Jay is at Roswell High this semester and finishing out his junior requirements along with German and, surprise, Theatre Technology. He figured he needed something easy to balance the academic load and so far says that the class looks like mostly hammer and nail work. (FWIW, he says that the food sux just like at Centennial).
It's going to be a hectic month in January with new schools, activities and Randy being gone for the next 2 weekends.
Oh - and we bought a new car Sunday...a Nissan Versa as Randy's new commuter car. Small car but good mileage. We're supposed to pick it up tonight.
