The One With Bri's Big Week

Wow....this was a busy week in our little neck of the woods. In fact, it was the week of Bri.


On Monday, Bri had to attend a school committee meeting. There, she and several of her other sixth grade classmates were honored for having their pictures selected in the local DPW calendar. That was a fabulous event!


On Tuesday, Bri had her first middle school concert. It was a blast watching her playing flute on stage for the first concert this year. She did a great job and looked much like a middle school student on stage.


Then, we wrapped up the week where she volunteered for a "Friday Fun" night for her school. She and some friends helped run activities at the event....which she had a lot of fun at.


Overall, it was pretty exhausting this week...but pretty fun!

The One With Open House

This past week, we also had the chance to go to HMRS open house. It was an amazing experience.

We actually got to live the life of a 6th grader at the school and follow their schedule, which is something they do at my school as well. I now know why parents complain about the speed of it....it does make for a choppy, albeit quick night. But it worked.

However, the big thing we learned was that Bri has some amazing teachers. They all were passionate about what they teach. And I could make a connection with each teacher and someone I teach with as well.

Here is hoping she is off to a long and memorable career at HMRS.
