Derek's teacher Ms Schrimsher
It wasn't long before the tears were flowing 
Waiting for the kids to enter
All the parents snapping pictures as the kids parade in

Derek says he won't miss the principal Ms Schmidt. He says she talks to all the kids in the school like they're in kindergarten.
Derek will miss Ms Russo
After a retrospective slideshow the kids sang "Because You Loved Me" which sent all the parents reaching for their tissues
Derek got to pick where we went to eat afterwards
Derek shows off his iTunes graduation presentTuesday May 25, 2010
We weren't really sure what a 5th grade graduation ceremony would involve, but they did a good job and it was a good experience. We're not sure we want our baby to grow up, but it helps that he seems ready and willing.
The last week of school was crazy. The kids were bouncing off the walls and Helen was melting down. I was trying to wind things down at work and finish up the planning for our road trip we were starting on Friday.
