th was Kiersten's first day of second grade. We decided to put her in a Charter School this year. It's called Discovery Plus Academy. It's K-6 and it's just right up the road from our house which makes it really nice. Kiersten is loving it so far!!! Her teacher is Mrs. Skinner and Kiersten already feels so comfortable in her class. Kiersten came home from school the first day and told me that she's not scared this year, so that made me happy. There are only 16 kids in her class and along with Mrs. Skinner there is two aides, four hours a day. What a great ratio that is huh? I am excited to be a part of this school.............I hope we continue to love it as much as we do so far! Kiersten was very excited when she found out that she won't have school on Fridays. I am looking forward to this as well! It will be nice to have my kids home on Fridays, but not the whole neighborhood. We are the only ones in our subdivision that go there. Kiersten was so ecstatic about the strings program the school offers. You can elect to join the orchestra and play either the fiddle or the violin. Kiersten is going to play the violin...............she wants to get a pink one! She will go to strings everyday for 40 minutes (during school). Each grade goes at a different time to Strings. In her class there are only 7 kids that go. She already passed memorizing all the parts of the violin and bow. She was the only one in her class that knew them all. She was so excited! I am excited to see the growth in Kiersten! She is very smart and does extremely well in school!
Hunter started preschool on Tuesday, August 12
th @ Brighter Day Preschool. This is the preschool through the school district here in
Pima. Hunter was so excited to go and came home even happier. He said his teacher was the best teacher in the world! Before we knew who his teacher was, we were standing in the office waiting to find out and we overheard several moms talking to each other saying who their kids had. Everyone said the Mrs.
D'Anne was the best and how much everyone loved her. I was happy to find out that's who Hunter has! YEAH!! It's only been a week and he already likes it more then the preschool at Dorthy
Stinson. Hunter did like that preschool the first year when Mrs. Tony was there, but when she left he really didn't like it much. I am so excited for Hunter to love his preschool. His speech is improving so much and it's going to be sad when he doesn't have his " Hunter Accent!"
One nice thing about Hunter's preschool is that they pick him up and drop him off. I love it! He likes riding the bus too. He has his bus buddies and he is set! Kiersten has to be picked up because there is no buses at her school. It's no big deal for me because we live like 2 minutes away.
