Too Cool for School
Well, Max's Kindergarten days were short lived. We got a call last Thursday from the Principal and she said that she had gotten a call from someone at the district who informed her that they had just gotten the paperwork enrolling Max in kindergarten and that he was too young to be there. So, after talking to the principal, I called the district and they said that the principal had made a mistake in letting him into school. The Utah state law is that a child has to be 5 before the deadline before he can come to school. He will be tested and allowed into first grade next year if we choose to do that, but he can't go to kindergarten this year. He was really loving school so it is kind of a bummer that he can't go right now. So anyway, we definitely have some decisions to make about his education in the future, but for now we are having fun teaching him at home. He is a little sponge that soaks up everything and is always wanting to learn more. He continually surprises us with his abilities. The other day he was in the bath and he started asking if there was a "c" in "breakfast" we told him there wasn't. Then we heard him saying, " I don't have another "A", I will use this "4" for an "A", that peaked our curiosity so we went into the bathroom to see if he had spelled "breakfast", he had, and he also spelled "snack" and "lunch" and had them sharing an "N". Also, on the bottom he had spelled "Wii". Not sure how that relates to the other 3 words
. Anyway, we had to take a picture.
