high school open house

I attended the high school open house last week. 2 children x 7 classes each = 14 teachers to meet. It actually went really well. I think I've learned the trick to getting in and getting out - go early! don't talk too long! save questions for the parent/teacher conferences! compliment the teacher (they work hard and I'm thankful for all they do on behalf of our kids)!
Molly needed to be there early since the choir sang:

Sadly, I missed the performance. I dropped her off, took Reid to McDonald's since it was fundraiser night for the middle school at the local McDonald's - all the teachers worked there and the restaurant donated proceeds to the school. Since he got a receipt that he attended he received a homework pass. Then I dropped Reid off at home and went back to the high school for the open house - whew! The teachers all seem great and I think it will be a good year for both Austin and Molly.
