Kyle's school had kindergarten roundup tonight. We met his teacher and assistant, toured the classroom, spoke with the principal and support staff. I signed up to volunteer for the book fair, and offered to help with field trips.
I did not WANT to go to kindergarten roundup, for reasons unexplained, but I will not be one of the uninvolved (grand)parents who blame their children's lack of progress on the teachers. Coming from a family of teachers, their main refrain was "We always know before the first week is finished which children have active involved parents and which do not." "We know which have chores, discipline and routines, for they have little to no problems adapting."
His class is small 14 students, 2 teachers. We are looking forward to new experiences with only little sadness. It only takes minutes and that chubby little face becomes...a kindergartner!
