We got an early Christmas present yesterday when I picked up DD5 from school. She has been asked if she would like to go to 1st grade full time after break!!
Apparently her 1st grade reading teacher got tired of her kindergarten teacher not doing anything to find out her math level and when asked about it saying "I just don't think she needs any more because she makes some mistakes on her work."
1st grade teacher went over her head to the heads of school and told them that DD needed to be in her class so her needs are met!
DD is ecstatic, she was jumping up and down when she told me. She is happy to do the little math catch up we have to do over break to be ready for 1st grade math too.
We are so grateful for this 1st grade teacher to see that DD needed more and wasn't getting it.
