and we're off...

Well, we've made it through 2 days of the new charter school...and my head is still spinning. It's much more intense than I was expecting, but everyone keeps assuring me that I will develop a rhythm with it and it will get better...so I'm hoping they're right! As far as the curriculum and the school staff and everything...I really like all of it. It's been frustrating trying to limp through with an unfamiliar system and my materials trickling in one box at a time... I think it would still have been a fairly big transition had I had some time to look at everything and prepare in advance, but this has definitely made it much worse. But I will say, there was a big improvement from yesterday to today, so if one day made that much difference, that's a very positive thing. For example, 4 out of 5 Clemmers (that were at home yesterday) cried at some point during the day. Let's just say, the only one who DIDN'T was Kate. (Yeah...Mom had a meltdown. Bryce's impression of it at dinner tonight was pretty hilarious.) But today was almost entirely tear-free, so we're moving in the right direction!!
