Calvin's First Day of School

Yesterday Calvin started his first day of kindergarten at Feltwell Elementary School. I think mommy was a little more nervous then Calvin was, he was very excited to go to school. His teachers name is Mrs. Hyde and she seems very nice and Calvin seems to like her. Here are some pictures from his first day.

Time to walk to class.

The classroom still nice and quiet, the kids haven't arrived yet!

Kaylee and mommy (at least half of her) waiting for the boys to come home.

There is the bus!

. . . and there is Jordan.

Right after this we all hopped back in the car and headed back to their school for Jordan's Open House. We got to meet his teacher and see what they will doing this year. The first week they started reading The Tale of Despereaux which they have to finish before Christmas because a movie is being released about the book (http://www.thetaleofdespereauxmovie.com/).

Jordan's First Day of 5th Grade

Today Jordan begins the 5th grade. We met his teacher this morning, Mrs. Flinders and she seems very interesting. Here are a few pictures for eveybody.

Today we also met Calvin's kindrgarten teacher. They do not start until next week and the teachers use ths week to travel around and visit their new students in their own home. It is a very good idea and something they should adopt in the states.

Straight A's

Marsha met with Jordan's teacher for the first Parent-Teacher conference of the year and so far he is getting straight A's. We really like his teacher this year and he seems to be enjoying this year! It sounds like another smart Culley kid when he was in elementary school! HINT - IT IS ME! (LOL)

4th Grade!

I know this is about a week late but Jordan started the 4th grade! He is still going to Feltwell Elementary and takes the long bus trip in the morning and afternoon. So far he likes his teacher this year, Mr. Whitehead.

Next year we will have two in school as Calvin starts kindergarten and will be going to the same school as Jordan for a year. Then Kaylee the year after that and Marsha has the house to herself during the day.

Jordan Heading To The 4th Grade

WOW . . . . our little boy (don't tell him I called him that) is heading to the 4th grade next year. It seems like only yesterday he was in Kindergarten, does that mean Marsha and I are getting old? His last day of school was Thursday and is excited about the summer. About mid July though I think he will be ready to go back to school, he really likes school.
