9th Grade Activity

Tuesday evening was our 9th grade activity. The school hired a DJ and the SBOs decorated the cafeteria really cute. It was fun to hang out with the students doing something fun. The kids got their yearbooks and were able to visit and sign yearbooks. Mine is pretty much full (I love finally being popular).

For some reason these young ladies called me "Grandma." I'm not that old am I???

One of my regulars

Troublemakers. This is the dear boy who decided to forge my signature a few months ago.

These cute girls are awesome. They are always so excited to see me and they give me a hug every time they walk past.

If Mr. Gibbons isn't tormenting the students he's tormenting me!

These were the first kids to get their yearbooks. They were there to help decorate and they nagged and nagged until we finally gave in and let them have their yearbooks.

LaCaille

Monday after school our French teacher, Mr. Ehounou, had arranged to take some students to LaCaille. He asked James and I to chaperone and of course I said, "YES!" We had a lot of fun with the students and loved the yummy food.

These cute girls loved walking around the grounds posing for pictures. I'm thinking we have a few future models...

I LOVE these 2 girls! I will miss them next year, but I know they will do great things in high school.

BEAUTIFUL scenery!

I'm not much of a photographer, but I really thought I'd take advantage of the area and try my hand at fancy photography. This is pretty much the best picture I saw.

Cute girls at the Cool Table

I got to sit at the Cool Table!!! It's a dream come true. :)

The escargot arrived! We had to make a rule that you had to try everything they served. It took a lot of convincing to get these girls to actually try this though...

BIG BITE!

They demonstrated how they flambe for us. The server poured extra liquor into the caramel so we had quite a show...

We were served the non-alcoholic version of Bananas Foster... Some of the students seemed rather disappointed with this fact.

Another School Year Comes To An End

The last week of school is always one of the craziest, and this week certainly has lived up to that! Monday June 1st was our Good-bye Assembly. It was well done. The kids seemed to enjoy it.

One of the teachers had a new Liger mascot costume made and donated it to the school. Our new liger was introduced during the second assembly (we forgot about it during the 1st assembly, oops). He was a hit! These are my cute cheerleaders from this year who I am going to miss!

3 of the 4 new cheerleaders for next year. We're doubling in numbers! Amber, Sarah, and Chassidy

The new liger got a lot of love!

The Ensemble Choir sang "Respect" by Aretha Franklin, with solos by Keilani and Amber. They even had back-up dancers. Ms. Thomas came all dressed up!

The back-up dancers.... don't quit your day job.

The new liger after his victorious entrance. We had the old liger come out and then the new liger came rushing in and beat up the old liger. The students seemed to enjoy it. There was a lot of cheering.

Mr. Cracroft wrote a song that has become a tradition every Good-bye Assembly. This year he asked 4 girls to sing it as he accompanied them. It's a beautiful song.
