A New School Year

A new school year has begun.  When you think of  the beginning of school it should be cooling down and more fall like weather.  Not so the heat has returned and along with it the monsoon weather.  Which means that not only are we 110 degrees but the humidity is over 70 percent.  That may not seem like a big deal but we are in the desert and have a dry heat.

Wednesday morning arrived with a flurry of activity getting ready in new outfits and shoes.  Who has time for pictures.  Me of course I always find time for pictures.  It's amazing how each year it's amazing how much they have grown over the past year.  Little Valley Elementary is bursting at the seams with 106 new students.  This makes us the largest elementary school in the district.  The awesome staff greeted everyone with smiles and excitement for the day to begin.  Of course I get this second hand since Dave is the one taking them to find there classes.

 Rylee - 5th Grade, Mr Stewart

 Reganne - 2nd Grade, Mrs. McBride
 Shawn - 4th Grade, Mr. Larsen
Christiana - 5th Grade, Mr Orchard

Let's hope the excitement continues when the homework starts.  Let's hope we can keep up with them and maybe this year I may finally pass 4th Grade Math.

Ugh, that's just yucky weather. I don't bother with school clothes shopping for the beginning of school. They are still wearing their summer clothes to school for at least a couple more months.
