Every day there are another 50 students back in the building. By the end of the week we will have a full house and school doesn't start until the 29th. I am sure that it is the challenge of learning that draws them back early.
The fall sports season officially begins Monday the 15th. All the forms must be complete and physical on file prior to starting practice. For more information, check out the Southwest web site. Most sports have individual web pages for more specific information.
I talked with Robert this past week and I swear he grew four inches over the summer. Tiara I did not even recognize. I thought she was an alumni just wandering around. What happens in these three months. They left as such youngsters and return as young adults.
Then I meet the new Lakers. First they are not familiar yet. In another few weeks I will recognize faces and hopefully learn lots of names. But right now they look so young. I know that passes all too quickly. And so it continues. Another new school year and a new student body.
Now none of the staff have aged. This new grey hairs and new set of aches are not signs of another yea. The building is almost ready. The pool will take many more months but will be great once open. Gyms are redone and almost ready to go. Still working on repair from leak in E05 but expect that will improve. Just about like every previous summer.
The excitement continues to build. Each day in August is one closer to the opening and renewal of friendships and meeting new ones. It is a familiar repeat cycle of growing up. And it is a great adventure!
