Well, we had the girls open house tonight at school which was awesome! Lots to take in and kind of a "whirl wind", but went great. It was hard to take good pictures and be in two places at once. It was kind of a bummer having girls in seperate classes because Chad and I didn't get to hear what both classes were doing and see much in each class. When we got home and compared notes, both were pretty similar so that's good. We had from 6:30-7:00 to check out the rooms and do all the "little projects" they had set up, and then the teachers had us for an hour. The kids went with parent volunteers on the bus, the office, nurse's office, media center, music room, gym, cafeteria and playground. The girls "highlight" was their lockers. Who would have thought?? The year sounds awesome and I LOVE all the educational things they do and how technologically advanced the school is. They are starting this research based program called "Fast Start". It's a reading program parents do w/their kids 15-20 minutes a night and they are finding a definiate advance in the kids reading. It will be interesting to see how it goes. It's also a "green school" so there isn't much that goes home via paper - majority is email or through their website. The teachers have websites through the schools website and I can see everything they do daily. (Here is the school website, which I think is great!!)
The field trips so far are Deer Lake Apple Orchard, ER Fire Dept, Como Zoo in the spring, watch a play (last year was in St. Cloud) and the Midwest Ranch. I'm hoping to go on all, and "HOPE" Chad will make the majority OR if anyone else would like to come that would be great:)
