Are you excited about school starting Piedmont Panthers?

Ever since the Union County Public Schools started talking about redistricting, our family has been a little uneasy about the possibility of moving from the Porter Ridge family over to the Piedmont family. At one point we decided that we were going to put our house on the market and move back over the line. Fortunately, being in real estate in Union County, I knew better than to try that right now.

We were only Pirates for one year but all of our friends were there and moving to a new school is hard when you just don't care for change that much in the first place.

Right before the soon to be Middle School child got out of the 5th grade there was a "Meet and Greet" at Piedmont. The hubby and I took the 11 year old to meet some of his new teachers, Principal Radke and other prominent people that would be joining our lives going forward. That night we met the President of the PTA and somehow Remona and I came to the understanding that I would become her Vice President. Had I lost my mind?

We had our first meeting last week and came up with several dates for fun events for this coming school year. Yesterday the 6th graders came together with their parents for "6th grade Panther Camp". It was a time to meet your teachers, walk around with your schedule and feel your way around. They had a lot of fun and I am happy to report that the 6th grader that lives at my house left with a big smile on his face and a small appreciation that I volunteered to be apart of the change with him by being on PTA.

Have you thought about joining your child's PTA? Do you have any insight to share with me as I make this journey? I would love to hear both the good and the bad that go with having a Middle School child.
