Nate's First Day of Public School!

Well, the day has finally come...we are all excited for Isaac. This is a photo of his school (Joe goes here too in 3rd grade. Elementary is K-3. It is right next door to the Middle school where Ammon and Ann are. Middle school is 4-7).

JD and I took him to school this morning to get him settled.

He's the biggest kid in the class...kindergarten...possibly the first grade too! LOL!

There is a bathroom in each class room.
(Hopefully Isaac will remember to shut the door!)


There are 21 kids in his class.

His teacher is Ms. Greko. She is seems very nice.

The teacher's aide is Mr. Stevens...who is also nice.

First thing ...kids line up at Mr. Stevens' desk and give him their folders
(the folders have any communication from parents or lunch money, homework and such)
Mr Stevens also takes the lunch orders to give to the lunch ladies to limit wasted food...good idea.

Next the kids sit at tables and play with Brillo blocks, Lego bricks and shapes.

The kids were excited to be at school today because they were just getting back from Spring Break!
They were also all excited to see a 'new kid' in their class. Most of the kids came up to Isaac and introduced themselves and played blocks with him. The kids seemed very nice too. (What a great place!)

Then came the drama.....

We got to be there for the fire drill.

Isaac didn't even seem phased...just part of the mysterious Public School!
I've never seen so many quite kids! No body made a peep out side.

Anyway, fire drill drama over and we head back into the class.
JD and I are following Isaac's class in...Ms. Greko is at the classroom door counting heads. 17, 18, 19, 20,.....20..... a look of fear in her eyes! Isaac! she looks in the classroom and calls his name...no answer! OOPS! Lost the new kid...while the parents look on!!! No worries though...he'd just followed another class into their room...They had him reading books with their class till someone came for him. He didn't even know he was lost!

Isaac's luck...falling in graves...getting lost the first day of school. What an exciting day for Mommy!

Came home to a quite house with just Beth...not really quite though, her tunes were playing when I got home! I think she is loving the alone time too!

I am planning on taking pics of him getting off the bus with Joe this afternoon. I am excited to hear how his day went.
