Mrs. Wright

Today was a great first First day of Kindergarten for our class.  We met as a small group of 8 today.  Our new kindergarteners toured the school and learned where to go to visit the nurse, the principal, assistant principal, the front desk, the guidance counselor and  the librarian.   Many a first day can begin and end in tears (for the students!) especially in Kindergarten.  Today was a tear-free day I am proud to report! 

Smile maker: A boy raised his hand ever so politely and asked me since my "name is Mrs. Wright, does that mean you know everything?"  My rehearsed response (as I am quite used to all the "Wright" quips since acquiring the name by marriage) came back, "Almost" with a wink and a smile.  His even better response to that was, "That's what I thought".

It was a great first day!
