This marks the end of Reagan's first week at her new school. She started at GS on Monday due to an accident at her old school. This is closer to the type of schooling that Jim and I would prefer - more montessori-like. It's not, but close. This place allows children to learn at their own pace.
We put her in the lower classroom to be matched up better with kids her age. Because their curriculum seems to be more rounded, we struggled where to put her. Not only that, but they also teach differently than LRS. It's all hands-on teaching vs. books and papers like at LRS. They offered to put her in either room because she was able to work in either environment - she was smart enough.
So far she's come home every day with far more energy than she had in the last few months. She had been telling us how much she didn't want to go in the mornings. It bothered me, but I always dismissed it after getting her at the end of the day. She was always happy. So it never made sense.
I think she still would enjoy LRS because of her friends there. She is still talking about Trevor - her boyfriend. Hopefully she'll make new friends at GS.
So here's to week one. I hope her second week is just as good if not better.
