Nicholas_mom Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 (edited) Oh lots of (((((hugs))))))!!! So I won't see you at Co-op anymore 😞 BTW, I can see he is so excited to go, too. P.S. My son does not recognize your son. He asked if public schools have your hair parted that way.

Mom25girls Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 Congrats on a job well done and hugs. I'm a long time WTM reader (from many transformations of the Boards) and am preparing to start my 22 year tomorrow. I'm down to only two students (a Senior and a Sophomore) and my days homeschooling are coming to an end. It's exciting and..bittersweet. I'm hoping that you have something lovely planned for today. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’re still members this year, though; I was thinking he could still attend some events this year. That’s so funny what your son said! 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MysteryJen Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 Congratulations Quill! That happened to me last year and then he asked to be homeschooled again. So I recommend not getting rid of anything you might need in a homeschool emergency. 😂 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 Young soldier has returned from Day One. 🙂 No major issues; some moderate confusion about when he was supposed to go to lunch. I was worried about bus pick-up because the end of our driveway is not an official bus stop, but in order to get to the “real” bus stop, he would have to walk down the insane state road with no shoulder, in the weeds. So I was nervous about that. But the driver accommodated him. Someone did tell him that a kid he used to know was “into drugs now”. I don’t know any way to verify that info but sadly, it sorta makes sense with some other things. So that was troubling. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We simply cannot afford the private and, since I am looking for employment, we need the transportation. I’m feeling good about the school, though. If he has to go to public, I’m glad he is going to this one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So hopefully, he will find a niche of nice friends early on. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
