Douglas was admitted to a new Charter School this past summer. They are renting building space the first year, and have had to delay the beginning of school to September 6th to finish the space.
Douglas has also been on the top 10 waiting list for a different already established Charter School for the past three years. Well, yesterday they called me and informed me they had a spot open for him!
They had already started school on August 24, so he was over a week behind, but the teacher had no problem with him making up the homework and getting caught up.
Needless to say, the past two days have been CRAZY, meeting the teacher, returning the hunter green and black uniforms I'd bought him for the other school, and trying to find white and burgundy uniforms this late in the school shopping season! (So far I've found 2 white polo's and 1 burgundy in his size. I've ordered more online, but they won't get here until Sept. 15-17 because of Labor day!) I'll be doing a lot of wash for the next couple of weeks!
Here is the excited boy on his first day of 2nd grade. Now all we have to do is get caught up on sleep (already!), and figure out the best way of dropping him off and picking him up... insane amounts of traffic going through the school!
