We kicked off the school year on a Thursday this year. I think both kids were ready to start back to school and get back into a routine. We found out Evan's teacher the Monday before school started. He got Ms. Porter. While she wasn't Emily's first grade teacher, she was a first grade teacher when Emily was in first grade, so she knew her. She seems super nice and hopefully will be an awesome fit for Evan. He didn't get in a class with any of his buddies, but I'm sure that won't stop him from making some new friends. As he said at the end of the first day, "I know everyone in my class and they all know me."
I was sad this year that they didn't let us walk to the kids all the way to their classroom on the first day. I'm not sure why they switched it up, but we had to drop Evan off in the gym and they walked as a class to their classroom.
At the end of the day, Evan told me that they had a fun first day. . .they didn't have to learn too much. We celebrated the first day by meeting friends for cupcakes. I'm hoping this will be an awesome year for Evan!!
