Okay. So sometime in July I get a letter from Hillcrest High School telling me I have the option to participate in early registration. If I send off the fees before August 1st then I can "avoid the long lines" of the normal registration day. I decided this is a great idea, so I sent my check off in plenty of time and was happy to receive my packet of paper work to fill out in the comfort of my own home. The note said I could go in on the 12th of August to "breeze" through registration day.
Now, it's August 12th and I am ready to get to the school, drop off my paperwork, get my receipt, the locker and Alex's activity card. I was a little disappointed to see that EVERYONE ELSE IN TOWN TOOK ADVANTAGE OF EARLY REGISTRATION. I spent the next 2 1/2 hours standing in long lines! First, get your receipt and drop the paperwork in the baskets, then to the next long line to get the locker number and combination, then to the third line to get pictures and print out the activity card...last but not least to the counselors line to take care of a schedule issue.
Next year I think I will take my chances and just go during normal registration. Wish me luck, Jordan's middle school registration is this Thursday!
