The Pringle Papers: Graduation!

Ferndale High School Graduation 2016

Well... it has been a little while since I have updated our blog. If you would like to stay a little more connected with us, Rachel posts frequently on Facebook. :)

This spring we marked the graduation from Ferndale High School of our amazing Katie. She is working hard this summer to save money and will be heading to school in the fall. We are very excited for her. She will begin her college adventure at Western Washington University where she will be studying music (voice). I have posted a YouTube video of Katie performing with the FHS Swing Choir at Pacific Lutheran University as part of their Choir Tour this fall. The video is grainy as it was filmed with Rachel's cell phone. Enjoy! She is planning to transfer to BYU-Idaho to continue her students in 2016.

We are also proud of Ryan who graduated last year (sorry for the late update....) from high school and has just completed his first year of college at Washington State University. Ryan is still settling on his course of study but presently he is leaning towards becoming an educator. He is also working very hard this summer to earn money to support himself as he returns to Pullman in the fall to continue with school.

The other kiddos are doing well. Nathan will be a junior in high school this year and his little sister Sarah will be joining him as a freshman. Nathan just got his drivers license and is out on the road (look out world!). Sarah continues to dance though she is hoping to try Cross Country this fall.

Collin continues to be his very energetic self. He will be entering 3rd grade this year. He loves to read and climb and jump and play and do just about anything that involves people. :) He is a lot of fun to have around and we love him very much.

Rachel has been very busy with theater. She continues to be involved with the high school and middle school production in our community. She is also helping to run a community summer theater program that begins in just a couple of weeks.

I continue to teach at Ferndale High School (Go Golden Eagles!) where it is my privilege to work with the great kids from our community. I have especially enjoyed watching my own children experience high school though all of them have avoided taking my classes so far. I believe that streak may end next year as Nathan is attempting to enroll in AP Physics. Another adventure!
