Your photos: 1st day of school in West Seattle

On the WSB Facebook page, we invited proud parents to share first-day-of-school photos, and here are the results – above, Nicole R‘s son Kieran, in his first day of first grade at Highland Park Elementary. Next, Mary Kate‘s first day of preschool, shared by mom Katie:

What a day at Lafayette Elementary! Check out the hallway shot – right after the bell rang – shared by Luckie:

Also at Lafayette, here are 1st graders Molly and Owen, as photographed by Molly’s mom Carrie Ann:

Not far away, Stacey Riley‘s son Kellan started 6th grade at Madison Middle School:

At Roxhill Elementary, it was the first day of fifth grade for Kelli, photographed by mom Lisa:

And Theo started kindergarten at Schmitz Park today, according to proud mom Jennifer:

The Internet’s got infinite room, so if you have a photo to share, send it along!

8:33 PM: Karlynn shares this photo of daughter Kahina, who started this week at Hope Lutheran:

11:09 PM: And Lashanna sends this photo of a trio from Pathfinder K-8 – Coco, Jayden, and Dante (she’s mom of the “bookends” in the photo):

Thanks for sharing photos – be sure to let us know when there’s news at your school too (sometimes we hear from the official sources, sometimes we don’t, so we really appreciate the heads-up, so we can share news of all kinds that helps everyone else in West Seattle know what’s up at local schools).

Cute pics. Sure brings back some memories of first days of school: New lunchbox, new Garanimals clothes, and a vinyl Trapper Keeper, full of compartments, that held so much promise of the organized school year ahead (that in reality was hopelessly DISorganized by week two).

Curious to know the class size of the kindergarten classes across west seattle. Arbor Heights has three kindergarten classes, with 30 EACH!

At Schmitz they ended up having to add a fourth K class at the last minute (some tipping point was reached, I guess) and there are, I believe, 24-25 kiddos in each class. When I say last minute, it truly was … maybe two weeks ago?
