What is your name?

This year I thought it would be fun to give our school a proper name.  I have been reading Facebook posts recently about other families that have given their school a name...names like "Little Learners," and "Adams Learning Institute."  I have had a few names swirling around in my brain but nothing felt right.  I thought of "Key Academy," in honor of my dad.  As a child, my dad often asked my siblings and me, "What's the Key?" and we would energetically reply..."EDUCATION!"  I thought this name had meaning and sounded somewhat insightful.

One night, while stewing over my selected name(s)  I asked my husband for his opinion.  He wasn't very fond of my choices, which was no real surprise to me.  When it came to picking baby names he was quick to shoot down every single name I offered,  yet never provided suggestions of his own.  While we were debating school names, we suddenly heard the theme song from the movie The Breakfast Club "Don't you forget about me," play in the background.  Anyone who had the good fortune to grow up during the 80's will know this song by heart and magical memories of jelly shoes, feathered hair and florescent pegged pants suddenly comes flooding back to heart.  While singing the lyrics to the song, we looked at each other and knew what our school should be called.   In essence we have created our own little club as we sit down each morning, eat breakfast and learn together.  It's kind of silly and doesn't have much sentimental meaning but it is fun and light hearted, which reflects our family perfectly.  So that is the story of how our little school came to be known as...
