How will these all fit into my backpack?

Does her 6th grade still go to elementary or is it middle school? We are elementary K-6, middle 7-8, high 9-12. I like keeping the 6th graders away from 8th graders. So much better on their self-esteem and behavior.

Sorry about the book issue. Hopefully the teachers will let you know when you must have it so it will help with the load. Welcome back to school!

Yeah, she's still in elementary school. Funny story...when we lived in the Valley, I graduated from 5th grade, and I attended middle school as a 6th grader for a few months. Then, I moved out here, and attended 6th grade as an elementary kid for the rest of the school year, before graduating again and moving on to junior high for 7th grade

We had lockers when I went to middle school (as a 6th grader) in the valley. I thought it was the coolest thing ever. They took them out of all the schools out here about 8 years ago.
