Last Friday Jacob picked up his 9th grade schedule. Yes, that's right, my baby is starting high school. It was weird enough that my firstborn entered his second year of grad school last week, now my youngest is officially a high school freshman. Where have the years gone?
Anyway, Jacob got a pretty good schedule. Our local high school is huge and is situated on a 305 acre "campus" that includes three large, separate buildings housing over 6,200 students. Five of Jacob's six classes are in the same school, but his fourth hour is in one of the other buildings, which will require him to trudge back and forth outside in all kinds of weather - rain, shine, hot, cold, snow, ice, etc. Adam managed to do that when he was a student there, so no biggie.
School begins next Tuesday and, hopefully, Jacob will not only be successful, but he will somehow be able to enjoy himself, too. Do any teens really love doing schoolwork, though? I doubt it.
