Madoosa, I have been very clear with the school that, while DD often says she doesn't want to go to school, it is a good environment for her and I believe in the benefit of the Montessori educational system. I have also said I truly do want her to stay in her class and in the school. They know my other option is homeschool, which is not what I necessarily want to do. My questions are also very specific, but get answered in a very round about way. I am still learning how to ask better Montessori specific questions smile

I love the idea of giving her hope! I will use that in my next e-mail to the school. Thank you!
