At the beginning of last school year, Hallie and Hunter realized they had seminary the same hour but different teachers. Hunter didn’t know his teacher and Hallie didn’t know her teacher and they really don’t let you switch…but I told them if they played the sibling card they would probably let them switch. So they went the first day, found they had more friends in Hallie’s class and within a few minutes I got this picture and a text, “We got it!”
They had the best time. Hunter told the teacher Hallie played the piano and she doesn’t. They had to share about each other and evidently that was comical. I talked to the teacher a couple weeks into the semester and gave him permission to punish them like his own if they got out of hand. He said they were playful – but it was fun and didn’t distract from the class.
It ended up being an awesome semester and they had fun learning.
As luck would have it, the next semester they had seminary the same hour again. (Hallie has good friends she hasn’t had the same hour in all her four years of seminary – so having someone you know is a treat!). But this time Hallie and Hunter were placed in the same class. And they kindly obliged when I asked for a last day of school picture with them together.
My senior and freshman. Because Hallie was only on campus a few periods a day the chance of them ever being in a class together was pretty slim – and somehow they made it work both semesters and they both loved it.
