Middle School

I just can't believe it. My daughter was accepted into Coastal Middle School's International Baccalaureate program! We are so excited! This is something we have prayed and prayed about and we were so excited to get the letter saying she had been accepted. What a girl we have!! We have been so abundantly blessed to have friends and family that have prayed with us about this, and we are planning a party to celebrate her acceptance into the program sometime this summer, before school starts back. Thank you all so much for your support!

I went today to formally register her, and it all began to sink in. My baby is going to middle school, 30 minutes away. My baby is growing up. I am so proud of her, she is growing into such a fine young woman. We know she will excel and we are excited to watch her take this step. Way to go Riss!

That is sooo cool.When my girls were there, that program didn't exsist. They were working on it. I do know that at the High school level it is awesome.Both girls are in it. It seems hard, but it can be done.And if you graduate with a IB diploma you are pretty much garenteed going to any college you choose. It holds that much weight. And they are still working on makeing it where you can actually start college with some credits. That will be cool. I know from experience what it's like to go to college and not have the skills needed to study propally.This teaches that.
