First Day of School



Alex is very much enjoying his new school and liking that it is within walking distance of our house. His friend, Jennifer, two houses down, is in his class. While they do not have a separate computer class, they do break for Spanish class twice a week. That is probably the biggest difference from the school in Illinois. They still use computers in the classroom but it is not its own designated "special" at the elementary level. Spanish is not for a grade but is introduced in first grade and continued through elementary school. He has jumped right into Cub Scouts here, even participated in an outdoor clean up event at his school with the Scouts on Saturday. We are relieved that he feels comfortable with his teacher here and finds the school welcoming.
