There is always something special about the first day of school. While dropping of my seventh grader, yesterday, I could feel the anticipation and excitement in the air. The kids and the parents were happy and energized. The staff was running around, welcoming and organizing; it was a day filled with hope, potential, and wonder.
I walked around a bit and watched the elementary school kids do the Pledge of Allegence and sing Hatikva. The parents were lingering and everyone was saying hello to returning families and friends. The school leadership was out and about, with Bill, Yuri and Mickey greeting everyone. Pictures were being snapped by parents as they dropped off their kids and wished them well for a new school year. The PTO had a wonderful coffee reception for parents as everyone shared their excitement for the year.
There is something wonderful and special about the first day of school.
