After being accosted once again for not updating my blog, I've finally succumbed! I guess people are actually reading this thing, so I probably should give them something to read!
The last month of school has been busy. We had our fun run a few weeks ago, and that was a great success. The kids (and a few parents and teachers!) had a great time running laps. We've collected almost $10,000! I now need to schedule those limousines for the 34 students who raised $200 or more!
Of course, the big upcoming event is annual Halloween Parade on Friday. If you've never seen our parade, it is a short, but sweet affair. We'll line up all the costumed students by grade level, march through downtown Twain Harte, turn under the arch, and then back to campus. Last year's parade lasted about 6 minutes. I'm trying to work out a rain contingency plan. I have been told by several folks that this parade has traditionally been a rain (or snow) or shine event. Fortunately, when I looked at the weather report earlier this week, it looked like rain on Thursday, and Friday. Then the weather report showed Friday and Saturday for rain, then it showed Saturday. Looks like the storm is lessening it's likelihood of literally raining on our parade.
To continue our Halloween festivities, the middle school will host the first dance of the year on Friday night, and then B.O.T.H. will host the big Halloween Carnival at Telele Lodge on Saturday. Should prove to be a fun few days!
