School Starts
Well it's school time again. My kids are excited that its finally here, although my son in kindergarten wasn't too happy about going this morning. I'm not sure who its harder on, me or him....LOL They are attending Watt Hardison and I am really happy with everything so far. Everything is very organized, and everyone was really nice. I do have one concern though. My second graders classroom is in a portable. If someone has to go to the bathroom or the nurse, etc, they have to walk outside to get to the school. Maybe I am worrying over nothing, but in this day of age you can never be too careful. Does anyone know if they are planning on adding on to the school or are these portables a permanent fixture?

Plans for a new elementary school are in the works. It has been approved by the School Board as I think either the 2nd or 3rd priority on the building list. These things sometimes take 2 years to go from planning and design phase to opening day, so hopefully, by then, we won't have grown to the point that we have to have another school after that.
