Today is promotion day for the 6th graders. I'll miss them as they go on to jr. high school. I'm playing my trumpet along with the 5th grade band during the ceremony. Each student has created a poster of art work, poetry, thoughts, thank-you notes, etc. They're posted all over the gym/auditorium/lunchroom walls.
Now to answer a question you might have had about that first sentence. I plan to start as a summer laborer for the school district on Monday. It will be doing jobs that couldn't be accomplished while the students were in the buildings. I expect to be performing a variety of grounds, maintenance and custodial tasks through the first part of September.
