DYK stands for Did You Know or Do You Know
It is simply a chit chat thread where every thought is written in sentences and each sentences starts with the initials DYK---it is fun, entertaining and a great way to meet the board members

dyk I hear you about the milestone aspect of the orientation. That's how I felt about Ian's kindergarten orientation and his middle school orientation. For me, I'd already btdt, and the parents whose first kids were entering the new school had all of these questions, which I easily could have answered (and some of my answers would have been different from the principal's)
dyk Kayleigh's schedule - she's taking more than I'd like for her to, so I'm hoping her schoolwork doesn't totally overwhelm her next year:

dyk Congrats to Rachel and Jamie on getting off to a winning start! Hope the rest of the season goes the same
dyk Has Rachel taken the psat's yet? Kayleigh did but we don't know the results
dyk Yes, she wants to go to vet school and an Animal Sciences major for undergrad
dyk My sister's three sons all graduated UMD College Park - the youngest did his first year at UDel, but when he changed majors, it wasn't the best school for him anymore. He is now in his 2nd year of grad school at Northwestern
dyk Does Rachel have any preferences about colleges or majors so far?

<<dyk tag you are it>> Okay! Do I win yet? You know how competitive I am!
dyk It's scary to me to be thinking about college, but in two years, Kayleigh will be preparing to get her license and we'll be going on college visits
dyk It's mindblowing how quickly their childhoods pass.

DYK Rach took the PSATs in the fall...we got results & MS even had a meeting about results. The test was given@her MS; as u can imagine she was NOT thrilled to take it. Her MS encouraged all students in algebra & above to take it so we paid for it thinking it would be good practice. It was given right before the Catholic school entrance exam which may account for Rach's excitement lol.
DYK Rach thinks she might want to be a journalism major but really has no clue. Its funny cuz Jamie said the other day she wanted to be a nurse.
