Last Days of School

The last days of school were bittersweet this year because the kids will be moving to new teachers next year after 2 years with the same teachers. Presley had an amazing teacher, Srta. Koch., who really takes education to the next level with compassion and special attention to the needs of each student. Canyon had Sra. Pastrana, a teacher who taught him the importance of discipline and respect.


During the last 10 days of school, Presley fell on her scooter in our driveway (not wearing a helmet!), and gouged her head open. We had to take her to the emergency room where she got her head "glued" back together!



For Presley's class, the last 10 days were all special dress up days (mix and match day, pajama day, beach day, etc.). One of the days, was Animal Day where Presley dressed up as a cute penguin. Also important to note that she has no hat on. Doctor recommended that she not wear a hat for 3-4 days as her injury heals. Almost didn't recognize that cutie pie!



Presley's class also had a special author's tea, where the kids created and read their Penny Books. In their Penny Books, the kids documented special events from the first 8 years of life. Super cool! Here is Presley with Srta. Koch.



Canyon's last days were also marked by a very special event. He successfully put contacts into his eyes (with lots of help from Mom). So excited to not have to wear his glasses when he's playing sports or to school (although he didn't wear them to school anyways). On his last day, his class room celebrated pajama day.



A very special ending to 2nd and 4th grade!
