The Last Day of School
The Last Day of School | Louise Borden
6 posts
The shool year is coming to an end, and everyone at Albert E. Chapman Elementary School is counting down, including Mrs. Mallory's third grade class. In the last weeks of school there is much to be done, from putting away supplies to cleaning out desks to finding a summer home for the class pet, Rhoda. Now -- finally -- the last day is here! Matthew Perez, one of Mrs. Mallory's students, has a perfect good-bye gift for his teacher, and he can't wait to give it to her. But when is the right time? Not in the morning when other kids are giving their gifts. Not during the Last Day fun of kickball and ice-cream treats. Will Matt get his chance before the school day is over? The last Day of School will resonate with all children who know the excitement, energy, and bittersweet emotions that the final days of a school year bring.

Remember the first day of school pic- with the cute outfit and the clean, smiling face? Well, this is what the last day looks like- my son, walking away, arriving at school after the second bell, not another kid in sight, in no rush whatsoever... and me taking a quick photo from the car while yelling, “Chop, chop, dude!”

Just letting my #BFC buddies know that I may be a bit late on my check-in post today, because I‘m busy with last school day stuff. Tomorrow is the last day of preschool for our kiddos and I decided that this year I‘d get them each a summer outfit. They get plenty of books and educational toys from donations and grants since we serve at-risk low income students, so I thought this would be helpful.

Not quite the last day of school but we have a party tomorrow. So the kids and I had our last day of school tradition of lunch at Friendly‘s and summer book haul from B&N. I could help get one for myself. #lastdayofschool #summerbreak

Day 7 #JuneTunz OMG, You guys are amazing! One week down and I've seen such clever, fun, inspired posts!!! Today's song choice is from the super bookish & knowledgeable @CherylDeFranceschi ???? and all I can say is #Hallelujah today is my son's "Last Day of School" (have not read the book, but it sounds adorable) I'm sooo ready for summer vacation ?☀️?☀️

TrishB Good one 👍 my daughter finally finishes exams next week and I can't wait for the tension to go from the household 😀 7y
Cinfhen I hear you @TrishB my daughter was a very INTENSE student, but my youngest...not so much 😉 7y
CherylDeFranceschi 🎉🎉🎉for summer vacation. And, awww, you made me blush! 😘 7y

LauraBeth Yay for summer break! We ship off my kid to camp soon 🎉🎉🎉 7y

Cinfhen #Hallelujah for overnight camp @laurabeth 🙌🏻😻 7y
emilyhaldi Yay for summer!! I just wish I got a break from work 😂 7y
Reviewsbylola I'm the opposite. Summer vacation freaks me out! Genevieve gets the majority of her therapy at school, plus we lose the structure and routine. Two weeks into summer break though and I'm enjoying it much more! 7y
Cinfhen When my kids were younger, I dreaded summer @Reviewsbylola endless days of hearing "I'm bored" even though they had action packed days!!!! Now summer is so blissful ? 7y
Cinfhen Yeah, works a total buzzkill @emilyhaldi 😜 7y
Reviewsbylola I can't wait until my kids can swim independently in a few years and I can sit by the pool every day. 😂 7y
Cinfhen Ha! I had the same wish and when I finally reached that stage...got pregnant with a third child!!! @Reviewsbylola (edited) 7y
merelybookish @My kids have been off since May 25th! 😑 I'm still mostly in the dread phase. But I do like a break from the early morning rush and routine! 7y
Cinfhen That's a long break @merelybookish do they go back early August? When my kids were younger, the best part about summer break was no carpools!!!!! 7y
merelybookish School goes back August 8th. They've really readjusted the summer holiday over the past few years. Memorial Day - early August. I find it disorienting but I guess where we live June is a nicer month than August. 🤷 eit's still two months of coordinating activities. 😲 7y
Cinfhen I hope all the classrooms have AC @merelybookish I'm not sure if I could get used to that schedule...although living in Israel, Sunday is a school day/work day, no school/work on Friday but it's always a shock come Sunday morning 😱 7y
merelybookish @Cinfhen oh my! I can imagine! Years of programming would make that impossible to reconcile. 7y
Bklover I recently took early retirement (I'm 57) and my youngest daughter is16. I have found that I am LOVING her summer break. We read together, joined a gym together, and it's wonderful just getting to listen to her talk!❤️ 7y
Cinfhen That's amazing @Bklover enjoy those years and special moments 💞💞💞 7y
erzascarletbookgasm Wohoo! Happy summer break, everyone! 7y
Reviewsbylola That will probably happen to me too. 😂😂 My husband and I talk about all the fun stuff we will be able to do in a few years when our little ones are a bit older but I'm always thinking maybe we should have another one instead. 😂 7y
Andrew65 We've still got 6 1/2 weeks until our Summer Break. Enjoy. 😊 7y
Cinfhen That doesn't seem like much of a summer break @Andrew65 🙀 7y
Andrew65 @Cinfhen Usually get six weeks but can be anything from 5 to six weeks. How long do you get? We usually start back around 1st September. 7y
Cinfhen We usually get a solid 10 weeks...sometimes more as kids get older @Andrew65 I love that big break! 7y
Andrew65 @Cinfhen Wow! I'd love that too. Any jobs going? 7y
