The last few days at Garner are usually a big deal. 8th grade party, Sports Awards and 8th grade Awards. But this year is totally different. PTA felt like the kids really needed an end of year celebration...so we had the first ever drive through 8th grade parade. We had a HUGE turnout. About 3/4 of the 8th grade class drove through for a tshirt, goody bag, palletas, any awards they received...and lots of CHEERS!!! All the 8th grade teachers came to cheer for the kids as they drove by. It was so much fun and such a great way to celebrate the kids in a totally new way! Since I was working the whole time, Jake drove Sophia and I only got 2 pictures. I wish I had been on the other side to see all the teachers cheering for her.
Middle school for most kids is hard. But overall Sophia had a great time at Garner. She had lots of good teachers (a few bad ones mixed in), some great coaches and lots of fun in athletics. She's excited to move on to Mac...and I just can't believe we now have 2 kids in highschool!!
