They’re movin’ on and movin’ up.
Coupeville Elementary School Principal David Ebersole sent 85(!!) fifth graders on to their next destination Wednesday afternoon.
The Class of 2030 made the transition in their new home, during a ceremony in the high school’s PAC.
With the festivities complete, the young Wolves exited as sixth graders, set to start a three-year run as middle school students.
In the class are race car champs (Finley Helm), horse show champs (Abbie Moss) and the granddaughter (Hayli Marley) of my first-ever Videoville customer back in the day, Kathy Marley.
Which one will do something remarkable in the athletic world and make me consider, for a hot moment or two, of referring to them as “The Chosen One,” before common sense (and Willie Smith) makes me think twice?
Only time will tell.
