[quote=Anonymous]Ours was also in the middle of the day. Both DH and I took the day off. I had made an appointment earlier in the day with her pediatrician for a physical so that the medical forms could be turn in at orientation although you can turn those in later on in the summer. It was helpful to attend because it gave us a feel for the school and also got to meet the kindergarten teachers. However, I agree with the previous PP, now that DC is in school, it's totally overwhelming with two working parents. DC's kindergarten has an activity monthly where the parents attend and participate. This is in addition to all the other activities that involve parents volunteering, field trips, closed for snow days, teacher work days, etc. Unfortunately, I don't have a flexible job and cannot work part time. So yes, elementary school is a lot more demanding schedule wise.[/quote]
