The Elementary Years Are Over

There have been a lot of "lasts" for me this year and they came fast and furious starting the end of May.  My last elementary school track meet.  My last fifth grade marimba concert.  My last day volunteering at Harmony Elementary.  My last Memorial Day Heroes Assembly. The list goes on and on.  I am so happy my kids are learning and growing, but it is with great sadness I say good by to the elementary years.  McKenna finished them out with a bang!

Last Elementary School Band Concert

It's a good thing I didn't consign my flute after all these years.  McKenna enjoyed learning the flute this year and has come a long way (even though she lost it for about three weeks and was playing on a pencil).  I think she will continue to develop this talent in middle school until she has the opportunity to switch to choir.

Last Elementary School Track Meet

McKenna participated in the long jump, the 100 meter dash, 100 meter hurdles and the 4x100 meter relay.  She placed first in the hurdles, second in the 100m dash, and third in the relay.

Last Marimba Concert

Ms. Weldon, the best music teacher in the whole wide world!

Music won't be the same at the Sork household without Ms. Weldon's influence.  From rhythm reading to recorders and culminating in marimbas, she knows how to make the music come alive in the lives of these kids.

A big THANK YOU to the Harmony Elementary School staff.  What a great experience the last thirteen years have been.  You created a wonderful learning environment where my children could stretch their limits and grow.
