A Great First Week

So the first week is at a close.  Reflecting on the week at school, I'd have to say it's been a great one.   The students are excited (as excited as they can be in middle school!) and the teachers seem to be, too.  We have a lot of new faces which has really added positive things to our school climate.   Walking through the halls, I see a Spanish teacher reviewing Spanish pronunciation with a cluster of kids.  I see students using computers in the first week.  I see kids helping out because Mr. Bond is out this week.  I see kids focusing on their homework, making sure it's done and correct. 

What a thrilling and wonderful start to the school year God has blessed us with.  I praise Him for what He's done and what I know He'll keep on doing for His children.  Here's a song we sang in choir, complete with some middle schoolers actually clapping!  Praise God.
