School happenings...

Billy and Seth are really enjoying this school year at East Meadows Elementary!

Billy is in 5th grade and loves science & chemistry. Pictures coming soon of his Science Project. His confidence in math has really improved this year, and he brings home high scores on his tests everytime. At his last parent-teacher conference, Mrs. Anderson commented about how Billy is well-liked by everyone and how easily he gets along with his classmates. She said you would never guess we had just moved to the area at the start of the year, that it seemed like he grew up with these kids all along.

Word is, the girl on the far left "likes" him. Oh, no... it's starting!

Seth is excelling in Mrs. Mecham's 3rd grade class. He has found some good buddies: Drew, Zach M. & Zach K., who rule the 4-square court every recess. He is following in his dad's footsteps, as a remarkable reader, as he's reading at a 7th grade level. We've had to talk about the fact that doing your best (not perfection every time) is what matters, because if he doesn't bring home a perfect score on a test or quiz, he feels dissappointed. At this point in his academic carreer, he thinks he wants to be a Chemical Engineer... whatever that means. :) I hadn't even heard of such a thing when I was his age!

I love it that Seth has a good friend!!
