What happened to summer?

Ok. So, it is August 24th and I have no idea what happened to June and July (or the first 23 days of Aug for that matter!).  This supersonic summer flew by and now I find it is time for my girl to enter the first grade.  I know that every parent out there is wondering how in the world their child is about to enter kindergarten (gulp), 1st grade, 2nd, 3rd, 4th?  Huh?  What happened?

I am not quite sure what happened but I do know that school is about to get back in session and life will get back to normal and all this summer craziness will be forgotten.  So get those huge backpacks ready and get those supply lists checked off (oh Fine Tip Mr Sketches where do you hide?).  And on Aug 31 we will all meet back together at school.  A new batch of bright shiny kindergartners will show up the following week.  And the playground will once again become the center of the universe.  The more things change...

Clarke PTA will also be back gearing up for a new year of fun events like the Kindergarten Parent Breakfast.   We have a lot in store with new enrichment programs and cultural arts designed to get our kids excited about learning and to get all the Clarke parents engaged and active in our school!

Check back often for information and updates on all the happenings at Clarke!

See you next week!
