Waveland Elementary Open House

On Tuesday night we attended the Waveland Elementary Open House.  This was the night before school started, so we were thrilled to be able to see her classroom, meet her teacher, and generally walk around the building and show her things like the cafeteria and music room.
 
We also took her school supplies in her new backpack (thanks Aunt Carole!).
 


So far there are 11 kids her class.  Her desk will be next to Braydon (who went to Kid's Kingdom with her) and across from Conner (who she knows a little bit from VBS and church).


Her teacher is Mrs. Barr.  Camden looks suspicious in this picture, but she did like her and was simply being a punk for the camera.

Mrs. Barr was a realtor for 16 years, then got involved in her kids schools and decided she would go back to school for teaching.  She has taught for 9 years in all grades.  Last year she was a 6th grade teacher, but has taught Kindergarten for 4 years, so it's not a huge stretch for her.  She did just find out LAST WEEK that she would be at Waveland with Kindergarten so she has had to prep very fast.  The classroom is full of organization - charts, signs, etc. so I think she will be very good.


In addition to her desk, Camden has a cubbie for her gym shoes and blanket for rest time.  Camden is very excited to get started!

So hard to belive that she is old enough to start school-so fun to see her classroom and teacher:)
