Penny is officially a Kindergartener! Her first week was great! She is lucky to have two kids from her preschool in her Kindergarten class (pictured above). She also seems to like her teacher, Mrs. Cahn (pictured above).
We were a little concerned about the daycare at first. She is on an afternoon schedule and starts class at 11:30, so we drop her off at the onsite daycare in the morning and they walk her to class and pick her up from class. She tried the daycare out a couple of days the week before school started, and she did not like it there. But, now that she is used to the routine and has made some friends (that are in her class and also go to the daycare), she is enjoying it more.
Another surprise to us is that public school is not actually free anymore. There are several donations that are expected of parents to support the supplies and the "extra" education such as art, music, computers, etc. We were asked to pay about $600 and this does not count the many fundraisers that will take place during the year.
