School

H. started VPK this morning - volunteer pre-kinder - at the bright hour of 7.30am. He says he wants to stay all day which ends at 6pm, he hasn't been in a program that lasted that long EVER. I am planning on picking him up around 4.30pm, 6pm is a long time for his first day of "school".

He is in Mrs. F class, he had her last year (3 weeks ago) in kindy integration during the last few months of pre-k. He loves her, I hope he has her for kindergarten which starts 20 days after VPK. The kid is not getting much of a summer break.

I finally did a page about last year's first day of summer school. He was still 3 years old in this picture, he would be four 3.5 weeks later. He hated going to "that school", it was a different elementary school & he said it was boring and the teacher wouldn't let him eat. @@ (eyeroll). The only reason he wanted to go was to ride the bus across town, he was on the bus longer than in the classroom. In the morning it was 30min trip but the trip home was 90-120 mins! But he loved every minute of it. I seriously thought & talked about taking him of the summer program because of the bus ride, but I didn't want him missing out on speech therapy & social cues.
