Yesterday was the last day of school. It was only a half day, so that everyone could go home, eat, and change clothes before returning for the celebration in the evening. There was still time for everyone to practice their songs one last time and play with their friends one last time, though.
For my son and I, it was a time for tearful good-byes and promises to keep in touch.
Then it was time for the day's big event, Celebration. Parents,siblings, grandparents, aunts, uncles, and friends filled the high school, to tour the student art displays, look at academic displays, talk to teachers, listen to the children sing, and watch both eighth graders and younger elementary students graduate.
Those Trilogy kids sure do clean up nice.
I will be handing over this blog to Rychane Marsac for next year. Much of the filming of last night's festivities was done by her, since I was needed on stage.
After graduation, ice cream was served and everyone was invited to look at the elementary academic and art boards. These boards, designed by the students, were a platform for each child to display the work they were most proud of.
A special thank you goes out to Talia Johnson for providing us with a photo booth where family and friends could get pictures taken after the graduation.
Photos will be available for viewing and purchase later today at http://uberbooth.com/.
It was a very long day, so I will end this post the way I ended the first post of the school year:
Good night!
HAVE A FANTASTIC SUMMER!
