Last Day of School

I can't say that the boys were at all disappointed for school to end this year.  Peter had a really great year in Mr. Brown's 2nd grade class and made some good friends in his class.  Although Andrew learned some important things this year and realized how smart he is in math he wasn't real fond of his teacher Mr. Grosshuesch or some of the other kids in his 4th grade class.  I can't say that Mike and I were impressed at all with his teacher either.  It really was kind of a nightmare of a class and the teacher's lack of consistency, discipline and expectation of the students really made it a difficult class to be in.  We are hoping for a better teacher and better environment for Andrew in 5th grade and have talked with the right people to make sure that it does in fact happen for him next year.  I think the number one lesson this year for both boys was the importance of choosing good friends.  All the rest is that much easier when you surround yourself with good influences.  We will continue to make this a huge priority for the following school year.  So without much sadness we say good-bye to the 2010-2011 school year!!!
