First Day of Junior High

J.C. starts 7th grade today. He is attending a Lincoln Academy, a charter school in Pleasant Grove. He proudly sported his red shirt. At his school the elementary kids can only wear white and dark blue shirts, the Jr. High kids get to add red to their options. The idea of having a locker, changing classes and no recess made J.C. a little nervous. At back to school night last week, he practiced opening his locker. He has the same teacher for Computer Technology Education (CTE), German and P.E. . He also as Math, Learning Strategies, Language Arts, Science and Sculpture.

Can you tell he didn't want his picture taken?

Power Tools

We've been working on a lot of repairs and improvements this summer. J.C. has been quite helpful. We even let him use his first power tool - the sander. He did a good job prepping the wood to be painted. He also helped paint the garage, has moved a ton of sod and compost. We'll see what power tool will be next, we'll hopefully upgrade to some serious man tools....
