According to the calendar, technically we have a few more weeks of summer, but now that Labor Day is behind us it marks the unofficial end of summer. School will soon be starting and this year will be extra special because the kids school will now be in a brand new, state of the art location. Today was the ribbon cutting and the kids and parents were all so excited.
Elysian Eagles, Lucia and Mateo are excited to see the new school and their friends
Lucia found her 1st Grade classroom and found her special pocket (center-right)
Another special edition to this school year? One of her OXO friends, Amelia. She gets to come to Elysian this year because she got in through the lotto...two lucky girls
And now for the entertainment part of the opening ceremonies. Favorite teacher and music extraordinaire, Aram, got the kids singing "Meet Me at Elysian!"
Mateo - waiting for the speeches to continue while hanging with the 6th graders
Board President (aka Papi) takes the stage to welcome everyone and get the speeches rolling.
Papi along with the Director, past board members and city officials help cut the ceremonial ribbon
The City also presented Elysian with an award.
All in all a very good day.
We are so grateful to be in the new school.
Tomorrow's the first day of school.
