Oof, school just will not end! So very very tired of it all. Sadly there are still 4 weeks left and lots of presentations and whatnot that require my participation.
Yesterday was "Leadership Day". Long story short, the school managed a grant to implement this "Leader In Me" program. It's a fairly big to-do, we'll be the only school in the area with the certification when all is said and done. So, as part of the program the students had this program yesterday. The entire thing was student run, and they did a great job. Alex and Ben had minor rolls, as did virtually the entire 1st and 3rd grades. Third graders (Alex's group) sang the "Leadership Song" to those in attendance, and Ben was in his classroom sharing some of his projects from the year with visitors. Older kids led tours through the school, presented poems, talked about various careers, etc. It was an interesting event and included all the students in all the grades in some form or other.
So, in the next 4 weeks of school we still have 1 more QUEST presentation to build and do, the actual QUEST fair, field day, the student art show (both boys had a piece chosen this year), student led conferences, and I don't even know what else. The kids are still doing research projects, still getting mountains of homework. Sigh. We will survive, one day at a time and only 18 1/2 to go.
