Junior High and Lunchtime

As a former junior high teacher, I always look forward to lunchtime with the junior high students. Each junior high "class" of sixth, seventh, and eighth graders has their own personality, and this year's group of 135 young adults is no exception. As you can tell from the pictures above, they have a great time together on the playground! They seem to be the kind of class that is enthusiastic, energetic, and willing to try something new. I witness them - every day - being kind and welcoming to each other, and to the adults around them. They readily volunteer to help, and I know that this is going to be an outstanding year.
