[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It entirely depends on the district/school. My kids did private from K and switched to public in middle school. Here are my takeaways: -Have them do band. It’s fun and takes up a spot to an otherwise undesirable elective would fill. -remind them to not engage in drama they may see. -Don’t watch/run toward the fights. Avoid the kids that are not doing the right things. Mind their own business (unless it is a safety issue, in which case discreetly notify an adult) -avoid the bathrooms unless it is an emergency -pack your lunch. Bad food plus long lines. -be kind and helpful to other kids in class that may be struggling Overall I think my kids are gaining a lot of empathy for others and appreciation for how we have parented them so far. [/quote] This is fantastic. Thank you!!!!![/quote]
