Everyone:
It's time to go back to school... well, for most of the country anyway. Can you believe school used to start after Labor day and end on Memorial Day? Could you imagine having three straight months off? Well, consider it this way. We get 4 weeks off at Christmas time and several other holidays that my son doesn't get. If you add up all the time he's in class and compare it to the time we're in class, here at SMHS, he actually goes to school more than we do. Oh, by the way, he's 8, and a P.I.M.P., and genuinely excited to go to school. My daughter is too young, but if you can't tell from the picture, she's trying out for Glee now. She won't stop singing, ever. Anyway, it's back to school time, everyone.
