School is finally out. Hurray! No more getting up in the morning. Bri's report card was all good as expected. Straight A+ in reading. Her lowest mark this term was a B (in art of all things) and overall a B- (that was first term gym). She's annoyed that her art mark went from an A- to a B, but she is sloppy and rushes stuff a lot (sound familiar anyone?). They learned what teacher they are getting next year, I'm pretty sure she'll be in the grade 2/3 split.

Serena's first day of school will be Sept 10. Should be interesting. I got the days I wanted, she'll be going every Monday and Wednesday as well as alternate Fridays. I'm not sure how this is supposed to be easier than every day half days, but my choices are limited to send her, try to drive her somewhere else or not send her to school at all. Bah. Let's take bets on how often I send her the wrong Friday or forget it's her Friday.

They finished their swimming yesterday, and Bri is very excited that she finally passed Swim Kids 1. She's done that one three times. Of course, that messed up my nice little schedule for the summer as they don't have SK2 at the same time and they won't allow her to attend Katie's class with me. So, Katie got dropped from swimming this summer, poor kid. I went back and looked at Serena's swim report card from last class because something looked kind of weird - it appears she is getting worse at swimming, ha. The session she finished three weeks ago she had 4 deficiencies. The one she finished yesterday, she had 11. Heh. Different teachers, and it doesn't really matter how many things she's unable to do, she's not ready to move up a level, period. She's just not relaxed in the water. The new session starts the week after next and goes until the end of August, and that'll be the last swimming until next year. Bri has Brownies and Dance already, and Serena may do Dance as well again.
