OverCrowded Schools
So yesterday evening right before we were getting ready to go to the Demo Derby, we found out that the boys' school is overcrowded by 3 kids and our two kids are the ones to get booted out of the school, this is just a tad bit traumatizing to them because they have went to Green Park since Pre-School, I tried to reassure them that they would have fun going to a new school and they would get to make new friends and could still hang out with their old friends, but they are still devastated by this. To make the transition a little bit easier on them I woke up and took them to the new school that they would be going to and we got to show them around and they got to meet the Principal whom I personally know and she is fabulous. Surprisingly they both chose to be in separate classes, and their classrooms are huge. The only downfall is that there is no air conditioning of any sort. Which sucks but other than that they love the school. I am sure it will grow on us all. Let me tell you I don't know how you girls in the military go through this with your kids and in your life it has got to be real hard.....I guess all I have to say is I give you props!

I'm so sorry to hear about that...didn't they know that before school started??!! I really hope they adjust quickly to the new school!!!
This was the first time we've moved since the kids have been "school age" so it is still a learning experience. What really helped us transition was having an extremely busy summer!!! They only spent 10 days here before they started school. I think it was harder for them to leave some of the adults that have been in their lives for so long...so besides what you are already doing I dont have much advice...sorry.
