Various School Spring Activities

Everyone kept pretty busy this spring at school.

April 12th Michael was inducted in the National Honor Society.  It was a great ceremony.  Loved that Michael borrowed one of Trevor's bow ties for the big event!  In May Michael also performed 2 memorized classical piano pieces in his Spring Recital. 





April 17th Trevor flew onto the stage in a short but very intense adaptation of Edgar Allen Poe's "The Tell-Tale Heart. It was a sit-on-the edge of your seat performance as the vultures were inches from us in the black box theater.



Hayley was amazing as the Chinese narrator in her Spring Performance Play.  She also did fantastic in the District UIL Finals in May, bringing home a finalist medal in Impromptu Speaking and a 2nd Place Trophy in Oral Reading for all of HISD!



I think these girls have a lot of fun together! 


In addition to several fun field trips, Jake spent some time making an amazing pond habitat for a school project.  Hayley was a big help with this project.  It's great to have kids who help and cheer each other on!



As for "Me and my Shadow", we are lucky enough to be able to catch glimpses of most of the fun at the schools.  I think Luke believes he is part of the school kids too, between Tuesday Folders for Jake's class, Hayley's room parent & a UIL coach. It has been a fun year!
