Once HS started, we stepped off of the club ball madness to play school ball and take advantage of things like busses. :) I have to say, i do NOT miss it...

I used to read several books with that premise to my students: one by Margery Cuyler That's Good! That's Bad!, an older version of the same name by Joan M.

May it be a year of great growth and tons of fun.<br /><br />I read the word "offer" and feel my heart race...my basketball dreamer is really hoping to make a splash this season so he can get a college offer. Lamaze breathing will, once again, get pulled out of my bag of tricks.
