Are you an OC parent??
I was in one of the first "graduating" classes from the OC & I am seriously thinking of sending my son there when he reaches scholl age.

I am an OC parent! My daughter is in 5th grade this year, and she's been in the OC since kindergarten. Her dad, Michael Havey was in the OC from 1977 - 1983 (not the guy pictured in the avatar, that's her step-dad) so you might have known him if you were one of the earlier OC grads.

I think the OC had changed a bit since you were in the OC, but I still think it's one of the best programs out there.

How old is your son?

That is so great - OC parents are great people.

Michael Havey was one of my good friends when I was at the OC. I remember going over to his house to play with he & his cousin Jessica. Wow, small world - even smaller if you are nonmormon in Utah.

I am sure it has changed, but one constant is still the same - Carolyn is still there. She is an amazing, warm person who brings a smile to anyone's face.

Did you grow up here?

My son is currently two, going on 18. We still have a bit to wait, right now pre-school is the quest.

My daughter is in Carolyn's class this year.

I grew up in Utah, moved to Salt Lake in 1983. I was in high school (Highland) with Michael, but didn't meet him until my senior year (he was a junior).

I was a mormon until I was 19, and I'm now very much a non-mormon. I 'm still working through some residual issues from my mormon days.

So you would have been in the OC class of 1985? I'm not sure if they have the grad pictures up yet (the program just moved into a new school) but if I see them I'll try to guess which one you are in the photo.
