The positives here are that she gave specifics: Reading levels in October. Challenge packets next week. Reading levels in the library.

Follow through is tough even for the most organized, well-meaning teacher. When I start to see a lack of follow through, I send an email asking for clarification and then ask if I can do anything to make the process easier for her.

For now, I'd give her a chance. See what happens in coming weeks, and let your DS enjoy the process of adjusting to kindergarten.
