Day 240 of 365: So long, farewell, auf Wiedersehen, good bye!


Today was the last day of school for the year! Wooooo! We have a yearly tradition where all the teachers follow the students out to the buses and wave as they drive away. The kids wave back from inside the bus (shouting bye to their teachers out the bus windows as they wait!) and the bus drivers all honk the horns as they drive away! It might seem a little corny, but I think it's really nice! I mean, yeah, I'm also thinking "byyyyyyyyye! woohoo!" but it's sweet. If I were a student I'd be touched!

I remember doing that at the first school where I taught. In reality, we were making certain that no one was left behind because we weren't staying any later than we needed to. HA!
