Kindergarten

School starts early down here. We had kindergarten orientation on August 8 (as a side note, that was our anniversary - kindergarten orientation was just what we thought that we would be doing for our 15 year anniversary!!)  It was at orientation that we found out who the teachers were.  Audrey is in Mrs. Knecht's class and Brooke is in Mrs. Thorne's class.  (as another side note, they are in the two PACE classes for kindergarten - which stands for providing accelerated curriculum early - so we were very proud of them both.)  As another side note, I am the PTO president for the girls' school this year.  Not really relevant to this post but it has been keeping me pretty busy here at the beginning of the year.

The first day of school was August 12, but the kindergarten does a stagger start where the boys go, then the girls, then the boys, then the girls, and then all of them together that Friday.
