We had open house yesterday and the children all had a picture with a story they had each written on their desks. DD's story and picture was right on par with everyone else's. (It did crack me up though, the theme was "What I did on my summer vacation" and her picture included Amish men with hand tools.)
I hope that this school continues to be this wonderful. So far there has been no weird competition between the parents. (Although I do get asked whether dd is in 1st or 2nd and there seems to be some special cache to being accepted in 1st grade.)
The school goes on 10 field trips a year and we just got the first permission slip sent home. They are going to a botanical garden to further study plant life.
DD is just as happy as a clam, it was wonderful to see her walking through her school with so much confidence.
Yay!
