Well, I got the call today. DS is going to start first grade in the afternoons tomorrow. They are going to work him up to all day in first grade. It sounds like a reasonable plan to me... I hope things go well. I haven't even gotten to meet the teacher!

Great! What's the plan for checking in on things? Just curious...
Go get 'em, Cathy's DS!

Well, when we went to pick up DD we stopped by his new classroom. The teacher seemed very nice and DS seemed very comfortable with her. DS will have his own desk with a nametag like the other students. DD has been giving him pointers on how to navigate recess  He is excited for tomorrow! Cathy

If he's being bussed, I highly recommend finding a discreet parking space, taking pictures through your windshield, and following at a non-stalker pace behind for the duration of the first trip,  LOL! No, he's not being bussed. I will have to eat lunch with him after K and then walk him to the 1st grade class. Cathy

Kathy A,
((tears)) Wow! Sounds like a great way to gently try out First Grade, and then expand or let go as needed. Lovely! And you get to have lunch with him!
My guess is that you'll be hearing a lot of chatter about the arrangement from your DS, Yippee!
There's yet another advantage to half day kindergarden!
Smiles,

Wishing you all the best. I hope it went really well. What did he think about it? Did you talk to his new teacher?
