I am glad you have one you are really happy with. That gives you hope to see someone caring! My girls are in 5th and 6th this year. The younger one is trying to sneak on makeup and the oldest couldn't care less! Teachers are okay though. We tried out the public charter school and have been happy.

Take care,

I totally understand how you are feeling. We had a horrendous time last year at my son's school. It was so stressful. I was getting calls EVERY day and I kept saying, "I think he needs to be tested" and the school kept saying "oh no, he just doesn't listen" and finally in January they tested him (after the millionth call home and my FREAK OUT) and they were like, "You were right. He needs to be in learning support." Well, duh! DUH DUH DUH! Sorry to let out all my anger on this comment. I will pray for you this year! Our school doesn't start until Tuesday (if the teachers don't go on strike) but I am getting nervous all ready!

It does sound grim. Well, with Ms. Teacher, at least. Just goes to show what a difference a teacher can make. And I loved the U-shape in my classroom. Hated the groups. And I totally agree about the 0. Inappropriate punishment. Sigh. So far we've been happy with our teachers, but I just keep waiting for the year we get a doozy. It's bound to happen. :-( Musings of a Housewife's last blog post..<a href="http://www.musingsofahousewife.com/musings_of_a_housewife/2008/08/there-is-such-t.html">There Is Such Thing As Too Much Independence</a> Wow.
