End of Era

Here's Cora, twinning with her favorite teacher the last week of school, on a "Match Your Favorite Teacher" ASB Spirit Day.
This teacher has been really influential on Cora, pushing her and believing in her acting abilities. 

Jarod has decided to take on the theater program at a different high school in town, and, for a variety of reasons, Cora has made the momentous decision to transfer there, as well.
She made hand-crafted cards for each of her theatre classmates, and it was an emotional time when she told them all of her decision. Poignantly, it was on the final normal day of class, when her classmates voted her top officer for the upcoming school year. She had to turn down the officer role, and then explain why. 
 
Her final day at this school on Thursday, her home for only two years. Very strange feeling that she won't graduate with her elementary classmates, especially those she was in kindergarten with. And, sadly, she likely will NOT get to go to the same high school for her senior year with her sister as a freshman. 

It has been a big decision to make, with meetings with the principals of both schools and a lot of discussion and prayer. We know and trust that God will be with her every step of her life, no matter which school or job she is in.

She was a little *too* eager to be done with all remnants of her sophomore year, conducting a ritual burning of much of her schoolwork. 

Sidenote, so weird that it's now June and we've had a whole month, minus a few days, of cool weather! May Grey, I guess, heading into June Gloom. Since we are guaranteed a hot summer at some point, I don't mind a prolonged spring.
