Spirit Week and Accreditation Celebration!

I think sometimes I can do a better job telling about my life here through the pictures I take, rather than writing. So, this post I will dedicate to this past week's spirit week and my precious students' creativity. Last week was not only spirit week but also the grand opening of our brand new library and accreditation ceremony. Last year our school was finally approved for accreditation recommendation and NOW we are accredited! Wahooo! On Friday, the whole school had a ceremony in celebration, while it was very meaningful and special to me and many others, I knew this hour long ceremony of speeches and recognitions wouldn't be as appreciated by my kindergarteners. I was concerned that they might get pretty antsy, but they did great! It may have helped that I gave them each a piece of string to play with in their hands, but I am so proud of them. After the ceremony everyone got cupcakes and sodas... you can only imagine how the afternoon went from there. ;)

Here are some highlights from Spirit week...

 Twin Day!

I think everyone wished they could be twins with these girls.
They even had sparkle hair spray in their hair! 

"I think I look like Mr. Maxwell." 

Pajama Day!

Wacky Tacky Day :)

 I let my kids do my hair... 

And on Friday we had our official Accreditation Ceremony. This is me leading my class through our brand new library!
