This month we've been able to go to Lance's school several times. One day was "meet the bus" day. We went to his school to learn all about the school bus and bus safety. We watched a short silly video all about Pooh riding the bus. Then a bus driver took us out and talked all about the proper ways to approach the bus and the rules for riding the bus. We even took a short bus ride. Mommy and Lexie got to go along too!
Last Friday the school had a field trip. Even though the Kindergarteners hadn't started school yet we was able to go along too. We met at school so Lance could ride the bus while mommy and Lexie followed.
Monday was the Lance's assessment followed by a tour of the school and meeting his teacher, Mrs.Mack.
Tuesday, we went into town to by school supplies and new clothes for school. I waited till the last minute because I didn't want stuff getting misplaced with the move or him and Lexie getting into his new school supplies and using them. I'd hate for him to go to school with half used glue and broken crayons.
Tuesday night was open house for the school. Everyone met in the gym and started off by saying the pledge of allegiance, singing the school song, and the Alaska flag song.
The principle told of some upcoming events and also about all the funding the school was getting this year which is awesome! All the students got school T-shirts. Every Friday the kids are encouraged to wear their shirts. Momma and Lexie bought shirts to wear to Lance's cross country meets. We then got to go check out the classrooms and meet with the teachers. Lance was super excited to see his name on a cubby then find his name on his chair. Their classroom is soooo cute!!!
So after all the recent visits to school I was super comfortable having Lance riding the bus on his first day instead of driving him myself then walking him to his classroom.
Lance's school has so much to offer. I love the small classroom sizes and I love his teachers!! I am so excited to see what this school year has to offer.
"God, watch over Lance's school. Keep the busses safe as they travel to and from school. Give his teachers patience and knowledge to deal with each kid as they need. Bless them in all they do! Amen"
