Safety Patrol

The fifth graders at Sam's school get to apply for a position on Safety Patrol.  If they are chosen their responsibilities are standing in the hallway to help visitors, reminding kids not to run in the halls, helping younger students exit cars and buses and putting up and taking down the flag.  
Sam was so excited that he got chosen for numerous shifts and he volunteered to do the flag four mornings a week.  While that means days I am not working we have to get to school a little early it is worth it to see him so excited!  He loves helping out and having special responsibilities.  I was able to capture some moments from his first day.
