Reflections on my second first week at BCA

8/30/2014

It was a great first week!  It is so wonderful to come back to familiar faces at BCA this year!  There are exciting things happening on all fronts, but I will choose a few short stories to highlight this first week.

8th Grade Homeroom! - The 8th graders are ready to share their Middle School experiences with 6th graders (which is an especial gift to me as a mother of a 6th grader).  On Friday morning several of the students spent homeroom connecting with their fellow 6th graders.  In the meantime we had a discussion with everyone else about hopes and goals for the year.   The resounding themes for this class are:  FUN, ENCOURAGEMENT, LEADERSHIP, MAKE OUR SCHOOL BEAUTIFUL.  I can't wait to see what this wonderful group accomplishes this year.

2nd grade! - I love the energy in this group of kids!  They have so much to share, and parents, I am blown away my how much they remember from last year.  I jumped right into Spanish with them, and not a single student skipped a beat.  As I tried to calm their vivacious energy, one particular little guy said, "It's just that I'm so excited to see you!"  This class has always given me a special welcome, and I love the time that I get to spend with them.

It was a great first week!
