I mailed you a letter this week but I made a mistake in the
address so now I am afraid you may not receive it. I am trying to
e-mail you a message. Hopefully that will work, and if it does I won't
send any more slow letters through the mail. I visited the school
this week and got some information including a supply list, a calendar
for the year, and an appointment for you and me to visit with the
principal on Friday morning, Aug.30 at 10:00 to discuss the classes
you will be in and also your choices for extra-curricular activities
such as choir, band, sports. School begins Sept. 3. On Friday ,the
30th, we will walk around the school building, find your locker, find
your classrooms ...whatever we need to do to get you comfortable for
the first day of classes. Then if you are not too tired from your
long flight we will go shopping for school supplies. Some of the best
buys for supplies are on sale now...if you would prefer for me to buy
some of the things now I could do that, but I know students like to
choose their own things so let me know what you want me to do. I am
so hoping we can communicate through e-mail now. The librarians
taught me how to do it this week! I bet you think I am really
old-fashioned not to have known how to do it before! I guess in some
ways I am. Looking forward to seeing you soon! Linda
