Well, back to school and after a week not really sure how it is going to go. DS6 (7, this weekend) will certainly be more challenged this year in the magnet program than he was in his home school last year. He is in a "higher reading" homeroom, so there should be more kids at his level. Last year there was only one other kid schoolwide in his reading group. The teacher, a male (which DS tends to do better with), taught 2nd last year and seems to be enthusiastic.
