What's new

Last day of school?

I am so jealous!!!!!

I'm totally ready for school to be over.... we end June 18th! (We do start after Labor Day in September at least!)
 
My kids were done Friday. Already I got the "I'm bored" whine so I put him to work cleaning his room, LOL. We usually start mid August, but this year a bunch of parents got a petition together and the public voted that school can't start until the Monday after Labor Day. That means this summer is going to be LONG.
 
We're done on Thursday - two more days to go! It's the earliest we've ever gotten out, and I have mixed feelings... most of the big stuff (ceremonies/plays/final projects) happened last week so it sort of feels like everything is over already. We are heading out for the Memorial Day weekend, but I'm sure when we get back it will hit me that I have to entertain four kids all day every day! LOL
 
We go until June 4th and both the parents and the kids are very ready in our house. Lol. I "think" we have all the projects done. We finished soccer last night and had the last band/choir concert too. I think we should be smooth sailing for the last two weeks. Now I somehow got signed up for the decorating committee for our VBS, so I'm swapping kid's school projects for VBS stuff. Kinda wishing that was over too.
 
June 18 and it can't come soon enough, lol! Too much going on the last month and I'm not even a student. We are all in need of some time off. ;)
 
Our last day is June 4th, and since May 1st the kids have been counting down the days until summer. They are WAAAAAAY more ready than mom. :giggle
As Amanda mentioned, it does seem that everything is crammed into the last few weeks. I feel like I have been buzzing around like a bee since May 1st.

I am looking forward to sleeping plate and not having to make lunches.
 
22nd the same as Laura! I'm never ready, all of a sudden my "me time" evaporates. The funny thing is though, it always seems to fly by in a flash and they're back at it again. I think it's true that the older you get, the faster time goes.

The last day of school here is June 26th, so we've got more than a month to go. And school will be interfering with the FIFA Women's World Cup soccer that is taking place in Western Canada in June, so it will be interesting juggling kids activities, exams and getting out to a few of the games.
Click to expand...

I am so upset we left the Bay Area! And SO jealous you get to go! Was hoping to see some US games scheduled in Canada on the eastern side but I don't think it happened. We are going to the US vs Korea game (last game for US before FIFA) so I can wait for that next weekend.

Kids get out June 24th ... I can't wait. This is the busiest time of year with all the Spring sports & other school activities ...and then getting ready for exams. Stressful.
 
What??? We still have one whole month to go!!!

Allthough the kids could use the summer holidays allready. They are TIRED!!!!
 
we're June 3rd here. No snow days this year, so they didn't have to extend and use the flex days!!! woo hoo!!
 
we have until the 24th - and amazingly (given the amount of snow we had in boston this year) that was the originally scheduled last day of school. i have a lot to do in the next month to prep for summer (we have a girl from france coming to stay with us for a few weeks, a trip to CA and i still haven't signed up for any camps (we are just doing some one-off skating + tennis camps)) - but i'm actually excited for the summer and a change in the schedule. this year was not a great one for me productivity wise and i'm ready for a change!
 
And BOOM! Another year in the books! And as an FYI... my youngest JUST said "I have nothing to do" at 8:30 am on the 1st day of Summer Break. Sigh. :giggle
 
My classes end June 12th but I will still have work ( kids coming in for exams) until June 24th. But we don't start back until after labor day in September. I am so ready for this school year to be over.
 
We have year round school. I've enjoyed it with all the breaks throughout the year (my oldest is in kindergarten) until now. Now that summer is looming and he doesn't get out until July 2... and starts again August 10!
 
We are half way through term 2 here in Oz so a long year ahead still for my girlies :D .... enjoy your summer peeps!
 
One more week for my youngest 2! Not sure there is really too much schooling going on for the youngest (5th grade) since they have one morning planned for a party, one afternoon for an all school ceremony and the final day is being spent at a local water park. The 11th grader has finals so she is holed up all weekend studying.
I had a college graduation for the oldest a few weeks ago, he is staying and continuing on to grad school. And finally another son (who graduated from high school last JUne) finally STARTED school just last week.
