The G's only had a little over a month in their new school. The last few weeks were a bit hard- all of their friends in AZ were out for the summer when they still had 3 weeks to go, and the work load at their new school was much less compared to their last. We were busy with swim team by this point so our afternoons and evenings were busy which was good. They both adjusted really well to their new classes with much thanks to their sweet, sweet teachers. Gracie aced the standardized tests they administered at the school year's end, (as in, she got 100%...) and Grant's reading tested into a 2nd grade level. We are so happy they enjoy school, and I'm working on seeing what we can do to keep them challenged. Theirs is a top ranked elementary school in the number 1 school district in the whole state of TX. They have a gifted and talented program that is spoken highly of, but I just found out that it takes quite a while to matriculate into it. Hopefully we will find good spots for them next year. (Sheesh!) All that being said, we are truly very grateful for the teachers and classes they were assigned to when we moved here.
They had one morning to be lazy before swim practice moved to a morning schedule. Grant spent it sleeping in. He finally came down stairs at 11:30, ate his breakfast, went back upstairs to get dressed, and then came down and ate his lunch. Grace got up as per her schedule the day before, got dressed, and went straight to the craft supplies.
