Well, just got an email yesterday from Connections Academy stating that they had shipped my two kids boxes. Guess what!? They already arrived today, and wow, do they send a lot of stuff. My second grade son had the largest box, it is filled with text books, a science and art kit and a headset with mic, so he can participate via video chat with his teacher and the rest of his class. My daughter, who will be in 6th grade had a smaller box, she also had some text books, a science kit and a art kit, and the headset; but I think a lot of her books will be e-books. They also already have their first field-trip planned, so far this school seems pretty organized. The best part about the field-trips, I won't have to find child-care for my 4-yr-old son, he can come along! Wonderful, he will be ecstatic.
So for now, I am feeling a lot less nervous about this transition. Connections Academy to this point has been on top of it. Now I just need to get with the program.
Not that this has anything to do with my post, but I have to give props to my husband. He showed up with a nice bottle of Pinot, flowers and an apple pie (which I think was for him...lol). Nice surprise!
