School started early this year -- on August 15th. The school is expanding to include a junior high and enrollment wil go up from 585 to 1000 students. The new junior high will not be completed until January 1, 2008. In order to accomodate 1000 students at the beginning of the school year, they are following a modified track system. Basically there are 4 tracks, but only 3 tracks can attend at a time. Our kids will have 2 breaks during the fall semester (each one about 2 1/2 weeks long). In January, the new school will be open and they can return to the traditional school calendar.

Holland is in first grade and is excited to be able to eat lunch at school! His teacher is Mrs. Poulsen. He is in the same class as his beach buddies -- Emma & Katie.
