newmom,
It sounds like you will be moving to a new country ... am I right with that assumption? Exciting! I really hope you can find a school that would be a good fit for your DD. Crossing my fingers for you!
I wouldn't worry about the testing right now. I would let her get comfortable with her new school and then see which is her strongest language. Which sounds exactly like what you are planning to do. LOL Just trying to say it is the least of your worries for now.
Yep, a new country! I think I'm starting to get over the initial shock and the worry about every little detail.
Right now I've been thinking that it might be better to get a nanny until we really settle in. Then we could look for schools for next year instead of being underneath a lot of pressure now when we can't even visit. DH doesn't like the idea, though... so I'm not sure what we're going to do yet. The other options is that possibly MIL could come for a month and watch DD while we get everything settled.
Yeah, I know the testing isn't such a big deal yet, but most of the schools ask about it (that's why I was thinking about it). But, yep, we're just waiting and seeing at the moment.
