Kids all smiles for new school year

A few more of your kids, as they head into the new school year.

BSA/AML lead Stephanie Hallgren’s son Walter started first grade.

Loan funding rep team leader Maribeth Osmundsen’s grandchildren are also off to exciting adventures. Collin will be a junior, brother Riley a freshman, and Jace enters third grade. Xander, at right, is starting 4K.

Northside assistant branch manager Cathy Straka’s grandkids begin new chapters too. Clockwise from top left are June, starting eighth grade; Belle and Jase, starting first and third grades respectively; Emma, who starts kindergarten (“She said she was a little nervous at first, but was so excited that they were having hot dogs at school the next day,” Cathy reports); Cruz, who was thrilled to tell his parents he learned to raise his hand at preschool; and Hayden, also starting preschool.

And senior secondary market specialist Marzena Kroll’s son Jackson began third grade and daughter Olivia started second. “Both of them were so excited for school to start and to be with friends,” she said.
