First Day of School in Texas

The boys started 1st & 4th grade at their new school, Ashley Elementary. Being new, we weren’t sure what teachers to want or not want, so we were indifferent when we were assigned Mrs. Woolford for Sam and Mrs. Theos for Will. They have been in the classroom for 3 weeks now, and although they have had some bumps, it is going to be a great year. Sam seems to really like his teacher. At the end of each day, I ask how it went, and every day, he says, “Awesome!” Will on the other hand has had a bit more of a slow start. I am not sure it is his teacher but possibly that each year gets progressively less fun and more intent on work. That just bums him out Having been around both their teachers a couple times now, I know that this year will be challenging, full of growth potential, and one to remember!
Isaac started Preschool this year. He is attending a musical arts preschool. He spends 45 minutes in each of 5 areas: academic, music, art, theater, & dance. His class meets from 12:00 – 3:45 on Tuesday-Thursday. He complains every day that he has to go but when I pick him up, he is in a super good mood and speaks of the awesome day that he had! I am hoping to sneak over sometime to check out the dance class. I can only imagine the fun that looks like!
