Last Day of School -- Bye Bye 6th Grade!

Maddy finished 6th grade about a week ago!

She was so excited about the end of school field day

and then a short final day!

Yippee -- School's Out for Summer!

Last day as a 6th grader!

She had a great year as a 6th grader!

Some subjects were hard -- math, science, social studies!

First day of 6th Grade!

She worked hard at school and with our favorite 

tutor every week and made great progress!

She had a super teacher and hates to leave her behind.

I think every single year, she wishes her teacher

would move along with her to the next grade!

Last Day of 6th Grade

Trying not to forget everything she learned during 

the year, we got a great little workbook with

daily worksheets!

She is thrilled!! Ha!!

Really, she doesn't mind and even though 

I told her she only had to do one page a day, she's trying to

zoom ahead and finish 2 or 3 days at a time!  

We are looking forward to a really fun summer!

BacK to SchooL!

 

 

Back to school for Miss M -- who is now a 6th grader!

Whoa -- really 6th grade?!!

 

 

I'm so happy that she attends our parish Catholic school and

it goes all the way through 8th grade.

Middle school can be a little intimidating, can't it! 

Is it just me or any other Moms out there feel the same way??? 

Yes, I'm a worrier and being in elementary school with the same friends

 she's been with since kindergarten means

 less worry for me (her too, of course).

 

Getting a little bored with picture-taking! Funny girl!

 

She was ready to get back and

so excited to see her friends again!

 

Back to school haircut a few ago, new backpack and supplies and

some brand new glasses too!

 

Plus --something different for the girls in 6th through 8th grades!

No more jumpers.  The girls can wear now 

uniform skirts or skorts and shorts (for a couple months)

with the usual polos.

  Back to school shopping is easy-peasy when

all you have to do is buy white, navy,

yellow and maybe green polo shirts!

 

Muffy was sad she isn't going back to school with Maddy!

 

She was a little nervous last night - but

bright-eyed and happy as a clam this morning!

That's what I like --

a great start to the school year!
