After graduation Maxwell and I with a group of his friends went to Paramount for lunch. Burgers, fries and video games! Best celebration of 6th grade ever!

That afternoon the class had a pool party and they all had fun despite the chilly temps!

Graduation

June 2, 2023

Maxwell is officially an elementary school graduate! I’m so proud of Maxwell. He excelled at MBE and made the most of his 7 years there. Straight As, exemplary behavior, involved in all kinds of activities – he’s an all around great kid! Graduation was a special day and he looked extra sharp in his new suit!

First day of Kindergarten…

Graduation was in the auditorium which worked out well because it was a rainy morning. We ended up being able to snag seats for Spencer and Samantha too so they got to come watch.

All the graduates looked very nice up on stage in their best attire!

They gave out a few awards during graduation…but no academic awards. I have thoughts on that which I’m sharing with the principal! In my book, Maxwell got the STEM Robotics award and the All A Honor Roll! I’m also going to give him the “kind, cool kid” award! Β πŸ™‚

After getting their diploma, the graduates stood alongside the wall and Maxwell ended up standing right beside me and Robert. We loved this! Maxwell did not. ha!

Maxwell’s class dressed up as the “Pink Pirates”. I’m not sure what type of pirates they actually were but they all wanted to wear those pink durags and they got their face paint on and they looked good!

The Pink Pirates ended up taking the Spirit/Flair award which was awesome because this costume was 100% driven and created by the boys! Love that! They also took the overall winner award!! 6th Grade Field Day 2023 Champs!!
