Today is la rentrée in France — back to school! I thought our kids were the last ones yet to go, but I see on Facebook that some others started as late as yesterday.
The boys stay in elementary school. Gabriel is in CM1, which is the equivalent of 4th grade.
William is in CE1, which is the equivalent of 2nd grade.
And this one! This one!
Juliet is starting collège, which is junior high! She’s in 6ème, which is actually 6th grade, but the parallel ends there. Because, instead of continuing on with 7th, 8th, 9th, etc., the grades go backwards: 6ème, 5ème, etc. … ending with terminale. Which sounds sort of … terminale. But in a good way.
And Maman?
Maman went to Paris.
That’s what was new today.

I like Maman’s style.
These are nice even numbers – 2nd, 4th and 6th grade! May it go smoothly for all.

so great! I love the energy of a new school year and (for us) almost the start of the Jewish new year. We’re the odds this year: 1st, 3rd, 5th and the little guy is in preschool. Summer was nice but I was ready to begin!
