Clarke 2010 School Year starts today!

Hello everyone - Welcome back to school!  2010-11 has begun and seriously, could it have been any hotter?  Yikes!  90 degrees would not be my pick for a first day back but then no one asked me.  I thought we lived in Swampscott not Surfaceofthesun. Tomorrow is supposed to be another scorcher -  we won't be digging into those new school clothes quite yet.

So, I thought today looked like the normal orderly chaos that you would expect on a first day.  228 kids and their parents and their bags of school supplies all showed up in one place at the same time in the sweltering heat and everything seemed to work out nicely.   Way to go!

Next week the little kindergartners begin classes on Tuesday and immediately after drop off (sniff sniff) all kindergarten parents are invited to a breakfast put on by the PTA.  Have a cup of coffee and a bite while you regain your composure.  Tissues will be available! 


Check back soon, many cool things are coming up over the next few weeks and all throughout the fall.



Sydney - happy even though she is stuck in summer clothes!
