The WKA Senior year is off to a rapid start. This years grade parents are Patty Mappus and Judy Haynes. They will make great grade parents because they are already planning the prom and senior day.
The senior parents that could meet did so before the home football game two weeks ago in the gym. Patty and Judy discussed some of their ideas and asked for some as well. They had sign up sheets for the Harvest Carnival as well as parents open house and baccalareate parents drop in.
We are going to do something a little different this year. A parent is adopting a week out of the year to treat the students. Not much but just to let them know that their year is going to be something special. I had the first week which was labor day week and Tuesday got off to a rocky start. I sent Monkey bread with Alex and it was eaten at 10 minute break. There was some distrubance and trash left out by the drink machines and needless to say the cafeteria personel was ticked. So when the treats are sent with the students it is that students responsibility to make sure that the area is clean and policed up. Dont want to be upsetting the cafeteria ladies. The next day their treat was tootsie pops and then a senior year sheet cake and friday ended with vanilla wafers with pnut butter dipped in dark chocolate.
I think they enjoyed it.
This week Robin Griffith, erics mom has the adoptive duties and she started the week with cheesecake squares. Yum! Next week the duties belong to Lisa Long because it is Nicks birthday week.
I am going to try to post some things to the blog just to keep parents up to date with any thing that I know. (which genenerally is not a whole lot) If any of you have any ideas of pictures then send them to me by email at marilynbl@yahoo.com.
Just an answer to a question before it is asked. No you do not get to beat them just because you adopt em even though most of em need it!
