Little Kids

Last Saturday, I took my daughter to a birthday party. While watching her play with friends, a first grader went zooming by me. He was about six feet past me when he did a quick turn and yelled at me, "Hey, how did you get here?" I told him that I drove and I asked how did he get here. He informed me he was at party but he wanted to know, "Why did they let you out?" I told him they let me out so I could take my daughter to a party. He was satisfied with the answer and after he gave me a quick hug, he was off to play.

Do you know he has told me three times this week he saw me at the skating rink? I suppose it is big news to a first grader for the principal to be "let out" of the school!

If you have a few minutes or a few hours, we always need volunteers. One small but important task we need is taking the mail cases back to the post office. This is a great volunteer job for the working parent. Just pick the cases up from the front hall and drop them off at the post office. Or, perhaps, you would like to paint. The library nook  needs a fresh coat of paint. Call 725-4233 or email dgoode@madison.k12.al.us  We have small and large jobs to meet the needs of any volunteer.
