Only Shipley At MES
He has the whole school to himself. He is the only Shipley.
Well, I think he is. I don't think anyone at MES has our last name. Each child only had to share their elementary school experience with a sibling for one year. And, that will be the last and only year they will ever be in the same school.
Yes, I find this neat. I had to share almost every year of school with my brother. I always looked forward to "freshman" years in middle and high because he wasn't around!
----------
Thomas has been settled in to first grade.
Ups: Thomas gets to stay in the same school he had for kindergarten
Down: He isn't in 1st grade with Bryce. It will be the first time in 4 years he hasn't shared a classroom with his best friend.
Ups: Mrs. Tapper seems like an enthusiastic teacher.
Down: He won't be in the same section of the school as Mrs. Naff (i.e. he won't see her everyday at some point)
Ups: This was the quickest least stressful meet the teacher night for me at MES. Every year I swear I fill out a novel. 3 papers and 1 fee to pay. That was a record!
Down: His teacher is calling him "Jack." They will both have to get used to that. (That is an added down for kids who go by their middle name).
Ups: Looks like he will have Mr. Bakeman for music, and he loves him! He will have a good year.
He will have a good year.
He will have a good year.
He will have a good year.
He will have a good year.
...and, he looked awesome for meeting his sure-to-be-awesome teacher.
