Middle School here she comes!

Who knew this poor child would have attended six different schools BEFORE even entering Middle School?!? She attended a private PreK program in Snoqualmie before attending Cascade View Elementary for Kindergarten. Then we moved to Mason where she attended 1st and 2nd grades at Mason Early Childhood Center, third grade at Western Row Elementary and 4th and 5th grades at Mason Intermediate. Then we moved to Windermere and she attended the last semester of 5th grade at Bay Lake Elementary and will now transition to Bridgewater Middle School to start 6th grade. Fingers crossed she will finish middle school at the same one she started at... :)

Although the transition into Florida schools was far from easy for each of the kids, Sage had an especially rough time. Thankfully, by the end of the semester, she had adjusted quite well, gained a few close friends and came to really enjoy her teacher. She had also joined a singing group called the Lyrical Lyons which she really enjoyed and I have to admit I was thrilled when I learned they'd be performing at the 5th grade moving up ceremony because at least that guaranteed her getting up on stage...one way or another. What a pleasant surprise it was though when we found ourselves whipping out our camera throughout the whole program as Sage's name was read for one award after another. It was so cute to see the excitement on her face as she walked up on stage, especially when they read her name for being a recipient of the Presidents Education Award! Admittedly Jack and I giggled wondering if there had been a mix up but sure enough her teacher confirmed she got the award because she earned the award!

Leave it to Sage to end up front and center...



Ms Donaldson, Sage's teacher!

Good bye 5th grade...

So crazy that she is in middle school. I am so glad we have a couple years before that. I am nervous to send them to the intermediate school next year. I hope that this new school year is off to a good start.
