My boys started school on Tuesday. It has been over 6 month since they were in school since the shut down in mid-March. A is a senior (12th grade) and C is a sophomore (10th grade).
At their Christian private school they have to have temperature checks every morning and wear a lanyard (at the beginning of the day) that says they have been checked at home. Masks are required. The schedule is changed. Longer classes to minimize the hallway congestion. One change this year is that chapel attire is no longer required. No more ties! I'm sad about that since I love seeing the boys dressed up once a week.
I'm very excited about them going to school in person. All the public schools here are online only. Even a private Christian school (King's in Seattle) is online only.
There are lots of fun traditions associated with senior year. A has his own parking spot that he is personalizing by painting it. I'll share a photo when it is completed. There is a senior sunrise gathering on Friday.
We had senior photos taken by Jonathan's friend/supervisor Chris this past weekend. They went to our church since there is an old barn (a perfect background) and also the University of Washington campus which has some pillars as another great background. I'm saving those photos for sharing later. Some will go in the school yearbook and the deadline for that is in October. Many of the photos showed a non-smiling A. C took his photo on Sunday after church and it was great!
It sure is strange to have an empty house again!
