Elayna started ‘real’ school this week!! She’s in the pre-kindergarten program at the new Fireside Elementary school – just down the road from our house.
Wednesday morning was a meet-and-greet with the parents and teachers. Elayna’s class is about 20 kids with a teacher and 2-aides. She has an adorable little desk, cute circle-time area, and tons of new toys and classroom material. She jumped right in meeting new friends!
Yesterday and today have been the first full days of school: 9am – 3pm every day. They eat lunch in the cafeteria, have a rest time everyday, and study a variety of subjects. They are busy and Elayna loves her new clothes and backpack! Just like a big kid.
But public school means no more daily report card – no update of every activity. She was sent home yesterday with a sticky-note and a smile…
