Well we're two days into the school year now and so far so good. The number of kids in his class isn't clear. It's anywhere from 35 to 39 and it might even be at a level to get that third teacher. The teacher was so cool and we moms joked with her at the 1st day red carpet ceremony about us "not being worthy" as we looked at all the kids she had in tow and told our kids to bow graciously to the high priestess and Mrs T. said if we came in and saw her under the desk to not be too shocked. All kidding aside I worry about how any of the kids will benefit in this situation. She didn't know he had a 504 but I gave her the low down and I got a good feeling about her.
This is the year they get to pick an instrument to play and manster wants to play the violin; of course he'd pick one of the hardest instruments to learn but he seemed to have his mind made up.
One thing that I picked up on that bothers me is that manster was pretty much excluding his friend "R" when she was in line up for the first day. Manster and his "girls" were all catching up since last year and excited about the 1st day and "R" was all alone behind them. I told manster to be kind to "R" because she doesn't have any friends and he right away said "that's not my problem". I just can't seem to pull the compassion out of him on this one but I keep telling him to treat others the way he would want to be treated. I know "R" is a brat and he's done being her friend but I don't want him playing those exclusion games.
I'm sorry for not responding to posts lately and will try to catch up with everyone in the coming days.
May God have mercy on all of us.
