Shaylee's first day of kindergarten

Shaylee was so excited to go that she tried to put her clothing on with the hangers still attached. We bought her new shirts, paints, dresses, and all kind of cute school clothing. Than my friend brought over some extra clothing that she was not using and Shalyee loved this shirt and wanted to wear it her first day of school!!! (instead of the cute new shirts we just bought her)

When I took Shaylee to her first day of school I was so excited to think that she could be in all day Kindergarten!!! After arriving I soon notice that her class was filed with non English speaking kids. ( I worried about how her learning would be affected from this) Shaylee came home from her first day of school and told me that all the kids and her teacher spoke Spanish and she could not understand them. I felt so bad and went to the school and moved her to the afternoon half day class. There seemed to be more kids that could speak English in that class. Next year I think I'm looking into taking my children to a different school, possibly and charter school.

hey, Shandail mentioned that you were looking into charter schools. You need to go in at the beginning of the year (like Jan or Feb) and fill out an application. Freedom does a drawing to fill spots. So it's up to luck on who gets picked. But once one child is in for a year siblings get in the next year. There is another one down in Springville, but I am not sure the name, but I have heard it's not as hard to get into, but it's farther to drive.
Your little girl is supper cute! Shandail, you and I should get together at a park or something before the weather goes bad!
