School is starting again, and we want to see your pictures! Send your back-to-school photos to shorelines@northshorebank.com or text them to 608-318-3348. Include your name and the name of each kid in the picture, what grade they’re heading into, and a few words about what they’re excited for this year. We’ll run the photos over the next few weeks as we receive them.

Burlington branch manager Robin Callis’s grandson Chase, 5, started kindergarten this year. (Brother Rhett, 4, at right, shadowed him in preparation for pre-K in a few weeks.) “Chase absolutely LOVED his first day,” Robin said. “However, on the second day, when he realized there were rules to follow, he told his mom that he was ‘done’!”

“As this was her first-ever first day of school, it was an emotional learning experience for her dad and me,” electronic banking specialist Angela Trantow said of daughter Riley. “But Riley was very excited for all the new friends and activities she would have and get to do.”

A second-day-of-school pic of Union Grove branch manager James Shook’s daughter Gianna. Her report: “Second grade is hard. There’s a lot of math!”

“Layla is 6 and is going into first grade — although everyone thinks she is way older, as she is 4 feet 6 inches tall!” said Franklin assistant branch manager Samantha Damman. “She is extremely excited. She loves learning new things and being challenged. Her favorite subjects are math and art.”

And Burlington personal banker Jolene Cedeno’s daughter Natalie is starting sixth grade. “After being virtual for a year and a half, she is very excited about finally seeing her friends every day,” Jolene said.
