The Penultimate Week

We are beginning our penultimate week of the 2009-2010 school year, and it is actually the final five-day week. It is a busy week, indeed, with the following activities on the docket: Pilot and Sixth Age new student/parent orientation; "Moving Up" Day for the Lower School (students visit the classrooms and teachers they will have in 2010-2011); Track and Field Day; the final Board of Trustees meeting of the academic year; and the Pilot Class Father's Day Coffee. We are trying something new at Track and Field Day. Before the students begin their activities and races, the faculty and staff will compete, in teams, against each other in a variety of games. It should be lots of fun, but I hope that the adults aren't too sore to supervise the students afterwards! Look out for my team--Team 5--to run away with first place! Given last year's rain out, students, teachers, and parents are all looking forward to Wednesday's Track and Field Day festivities.
