Busy weekend

What a great weekend I had and I have my Norton kids to thank.
Saturday I spent the day at the Reggie Lewis Center for a winter track meet. This was the first track meet I have gone to and I had a great time. There was so much to watch. Makes me wish I had gone to more track meets this year. Norton took third place overall. I want to congratulate everyone that participated.
Then Sunday afternoon, my daughter and I went to see "The Wizard of Oz" put on by the NHS drama club. We both thoroughly enjoyed the show. There are some very talented students at Norton High School. Shortly after the play I headed to the Foxboro Y to help out with the Amazing Race. I hope all the students participating had as much fun as I did. Congratulations to Tyler D and Joe D for taking home first place.
Thank goodness this is a 3-day weekend. I have all day today to relax and do a little school work.

I agree that this weekend was wonderful! I was definitely impressed with "The Wizard of Oz"; I didn't know Norton had so much talent! The Amazing Race was a success, too. I'm glad we were finally able to bring the three towns together for an event- now, the challenge is to make it happen again. Thanks for coming to these events and showing your support! :)

I completely disagree with you, Joe! Norton will most definitely be snow covered at some point this winter! I have not yet lost hope in Mother Nature, and I know she will be kind to us!

Hi Mrs. Taylor! My weekend was very relaxing also! I definitely enjoyed "The Wizard of Oz" and was pleasantly suprised by how much effort and talent were put into it!

Mrs. Taylor, did you hear about all of the high hurdle controversy at Reggie Lewis this weekend?! Apparently, the shuttle relay team has to go back again next weekend to earn their record! Your weekend sounds like an action-packed blast!!

I went to the play as well but on Saturday night with my little brother. We both liked it a lot. I have never been to a track meet before but I've seen them going on during spring track next to the softball field. I was also planning on going to the Amazing Race but I forgot to get back to Mr. Dewar so I couldn't go but if it happens again I will definitely go to that!

Sounds like a busy weekend! I really enjoyed the play too, everyone did so great! I liked how it had some unique scenes in it.
Hope you enjoy this pre-midterm weekend. It snowed just for you!

I loved the Wizard of Oz last year-such a lively and enthusiastic cast. What do you think they'll do this year?

I have heard that this year's musical might be Annie. Don't quote me on that though!

Red Sox time is here!

Everyone has reported to Spring training and the first pre-season game is Wednesday at 7:05. I am very excited, but I will have to skip this game because our boys basketball team has its playoff game at the same time and they are more important to me than the Redsox.

One School One Book

I have been reading the book "The Day the World Came to Town" and something is on my mind that I have to share with everyone. Can you believe how incredibly generous and trusting the people in Gander are? I would like to think that I would be the same, but I am not sure. I know that I would definately bring supplies to where ever the people were being placed, but I am not sure that I would open my house up to strangers. I couldn't get over how people were invited into the homes to take showers and the home owners would leave the house and tell them to make themselves at home. I would like to think that I could be that way, but I am not sure I would. What about you? Could you be that trusting of stangers?

What are you reading?

Have you read any good books lately? I am trying to find a great book for the incoming freshmen to read over the summer. The current freshmen class read "The Number Devil", but they didn't like that choice so I am trying to find something more enjoyable for the students. Right now I am reading "October Sky" by Homer Hickham. I am only 60 pages into the book, but I am enjoying the little that I have read. I would like to hear about any books that you have read and would recommend.
