1st Day of School

The first day of school was great. Brenton and Alex both loved it!

Brenton is back at Canyon Elementary. He's in a K-1 class again, so he has the same teacher he did last year. He LOVES his teacher! There is a lot of new kindergartners this year, so they have a para-professional helping out full-time in his classroom. We found out when we went in to the school, that the para is his "FAVORITE teacher ever!" She worked with him last year for his reading group. He's excited to have her in the classroom, also.

Above: Alex in Brenton's classroom. He was bigger than most of the Kindergartners, and REALLY wanted to stay there. It was hard convincing him to leave. (It did help that he had his school later that day.)

Alex only has three kids in his class so far. He's a mentor student for a special needs pre-school. The special needs kids are still being evaluated. They will be added to the appropriate class as the evaluations are completed. He should end up with around 6-10 kids total.
