Whew! I was seriously thinking that we'd be delayed. Teachers were supposed to go back on Monday, but over half of the schools in the county were still without power, thanks ti all the downed trees on power lines from Irene. There are still 12 school without power today, but the county allowed teachers back in today and announced that the start date would remain the same. Teachers missed two days of prep time.
We *should* get our teacher assignment postcards in the mail tomorrow. The teachers dropped them in the mail today, their first day back. For the past two years one girly has had her card come the next day, and one has not. In case all cards don't come, the school has announced they will also post the lists on the front windows at 2:30 tomorrow afternoon. Meet the teacher is Friday at 10:30.
Teagan is so anxious about her teacher and if her best friend will be in her class for the 5th year in a row (3 year old preschool, 4 year old preschool, kindergarten and 1st grade). We have told the girls that odds are not in their favor to continue the streak, but they do only live 100 yards apart and will be on the bus together at the very least. Fingers crosses.
We'll know tomorrow.
Wow, a little pressure but great that school is back on for their original start date! Hoping T's best friend has the same teacher again... how fun would that be for the girls!?! So sweet!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to hear how it goes... post photos!! We had open houses last night and start back next Tuesday here. Have a fun school year! :)

Oh my! I hope the girls get the same teacher! That would be such a cool tradition to keep, especially since they live so close together! Can't wait to find out! Keep us posted :-)
