When we got home last week, Maxwell had a special surprise waiting on the mailbox!
It was his invitation to kindergarten orientation! Woohoo! We went on Tuesday and it was great.
Maxwell was pretty excited and it helped to walk in and see several familiar faces like Lila, Jack, Glenn, and Cate. We all sat in the auditorium at first while the principal introduced herself and all the kindergarten teachers. The kids then left with the teachers to check out the classrooms and get a little treat in the lunchroom! The parents stayed in the auditorium to learn about important things like school lunches, carpool, and what shoes to wear for PE! 🙂 We also got LOTS of good information about ways to get involved with the PTO. No surprise, I’ve already signed up! We then all went downstairs to find the kids who were having a fun time and enjoying a huge cookie. Kindergarten is off to a great start!
With Glenn and Cate…
Outside after orientation with some buds…
These kids are going to hit the ground running in kindergarten!!
I’m really excited for Maxwell. I’m also a little sad. He’s growing up so fast and I’m really going to miss him next year when he’s at school. 7:50 to 2:50 is a long day! That said, I know he’s ready and I cannot wait for him to experience and learn all the fantastic things MBE is going to teach him. He’s SUCH a good kid. He’s smart, he’s curious, he’s personable…he’s READY for kindergarten!
MBE here we come!!!

He will love it and he will do great! Time is moving much faster than I would like though! Love that he will be just across the street!
Susan says
I do wish time would slow down because I know he’s ready but I’m not ready for him to go . We’re all going to miss him 5 days a week !
Dad says
He’s going to make a lot of teachers happy. We’re proud of our big guy!
Granddad says
Now that is a great invitation to learn, Maxwell will be a sponge soaking us all the new ideas. Good friends will help ease the stress of new surroundings while friendships will be long lasting and encourage exploration. Good luck Maxwell!
