[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's a thing at our elementary school[/quote]

We all did it. Totally a think at our elementary school.

I'm glad I did it for K. You only do it that once.  [/quote]

Our elementary (fcps) is a smaller neighborhood school. All of the kindergartners and most of the other lower elementary grades have parents walking them to the classroom tue fist day. Many kids have mom and dad. They snap pictures outside, greet the teachers, get a picture of the kid sitting at the desk. It is a wonderful tradition and really helps to give a community feel to the school.  We love it and we are about as far from helicopter parents as you could find (well, not quite the MD free range family).

In another state (wonderful school) the kinder parents walked the kids to the classroom, snapped a picture with the teachers who stood at the classroom door, then came back out for a coffee and donut celebration sponsored by the PTA. It was lovely, and also fostered a feeling of community.
