New School

​Leon has finished his first three days in public school! He’s so excited about the new place that he says he wants to go there on the weekends too (lol). Even though his class has been coloring worksheets about letters while he can read at about a 3rd grade level, he hasn’t been bored… yet. So far his only complaint is that they only get one snack per day, and that isn’t enough for him!

Minh is ecstatic about not paying the Goddard School tuition anymore, whereas I’m most excited about him being right across the street. Dropoff and pickup literally take less than 5 minutes each — and we don’t have to drive anywhere. Leon has a checklist of what he needs to do to get ready for school and what he needs to do when he comes home from school, and so far he’s been good about following each (albeit with a few reminders). 

I’m excited for him to be tested for Gifted and Talented in December, and then we can start finding more programs to challenge him!
