about year-round parents

In this group we discuss the year-round experience from the parents perspective, share information about track-out camps and any other topics that relate to having children in school for nine weeks and off for three. The goal is not to bash year-round schooling but to embrace it and help one another as much as we can along the way.

Feel free to invite other parents, PTA members, and even school principals and teachers.

Tax Free Weekend coming up next weekend. Let's all pick something up to help out our classrooms.

Just making the rounds in my groups - I will be away for a bit. My new job has me training in Kentucky for a month, so I will try to check in every so often, but not as much as usual. Hardest part will be not being with my DH and daughter for 4 weeks! Thank goodness she is in school and will track out the week I get home! Everyone take care!

Today was quite a sad day as I shipped my daughter on the school bus for the first time...she got on there and walked to the back of the bus with her big brother...she acted like she has done it a million times before...

I am more sad for selfish reasons, I have finally realized...I am so happy my daughter is starting her treck that will lead her through the rest of her life. I am sad that my little helper and social butterfly is gone...I now have to keep the 2 year old happy by myself. I have called everyone that is listed in my phones phonebook, because I can think of nothing else to say to a 2 year old.. :(

Last week was just staggered entry...today was the REAL first day of school...

No biggie - just wondering - We have had some school growth issues lately - last year my daughter had 28 kids at one time in her 1st grade class... Some friends that were at Ballantine (not too far away) only had 17... It just makes me wonder where Wake County's head is sometimes? This year seems better - she only has 20 (so far).

So without divulging schools - anyone else having issues with class size?

Jabrn: If folks don't want to share school location publicly, you can always create a group blog post and set it to "members only." Just an idea. -Angela

Staggered entry - one of my neighbor's boys started today too... He has had his backpack packed for 2 weeks! Hard to let them go...

So anyone want to say where their kids are? I'll go first - mine is at West Lake...

They all grow up way too fast!

"My daughter started kindergarten today ;'("

Try not to cry. I know it's tough! -Angela

My daughter started kindergarten today ;'(

Yep, my second grader made it off today as well, looking extra adorable, if I must say so myself. The supplies were quite heavy though! We need a blog about this. Who's going to start it? -Angela
