Nice start to a fall day. Feels like a great football, soccer, tennis, cross country, swimming, volleyball day.
Pep fest is at the stadium this afternoon with all the yelling and screaming that goes with being that age. WE attempt to establish new traditions but there are a couple knuckleheads who hang on to the belief that these activities are an excuse to be unkind to 9th graders. That is one I wish their parents never started.
Homecoming game, parade and dance are on Saturday. It really a day of celebration of the high school experience. Homecoming is almost universal in US education institutions. It is its own rite of passage. Most of the memories connected with homecoming are pleasant. We certainly hope those continue.
We want our kids to be safe and responsible. You might have a little chat about things. Does your son/daughter clearly understand your expectations. We want our kids to have fun. We do not want a single mistake to ruin a life.
Homecoming is full of memories. Think of your own and then have that conversation with your daughter/son.
