[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Our elementary school doesn’t allow parents to accompany children to their classrooms on the first day[/b]. We have to say goodbye outside and they assure kindergarten parents that their children will be fine. I really didn’t want to put my kindergartener on the bus on the first day and was going to drive her, but another parent with older kids made the comment that it’s best for children to follow their normal daily routine from the beginning because that first day or two, that’s when everyone is looking out for the little ones and showing them where to go and the kindergarteners are learning how pick up and drop off work. I think it’s probably best for you to get your dd settled in before care. You don’t want her to think that getting walked to the classroom is an option if it’s not after the first day.[/quote]

Same with us! What we did was put DD on the bus, then drive to school separately and watch the kids line up at the playground and then march into the school building. 
FWIW, my child wasn't in before care.

Are you my spouse, lol?! That’s exactly what we did and I thought we were the only ones.[/quote]
