Last Week of School

The end is in sight.  We are going to finish school up this week one way or another.  The week may not be the most "fun" school week we have but it is time to be done so we don't have to worry about it anymore.  No field trips, only outside activities this week are piano recital, baseball and book club.

Hopefully everyone can see the light at the end of the tunnel and buckle down to finish their work.  Sometimes the end seems harder than the beginning.  This year our annual testing is scheduled on June 1st so I have made that our official last day of school and June 2nd the beginning of summer.  This is the longest we have continued school and I think next year the kids will be more motivated to stay on track in the winter to finish up a bit earlier in the spring in order to enjoy the beautiful relatively bug free month of May in Minnesota.  Here's to one more week.
