I am not so happy about this, but I should be -
Bulverde Creek Kinder Round-Up.
First of all, what's this business with a ROUND UP? I have a good boy, not Billie the Kid. I understand that it's true, we eventually have to take the plunge (I'm drowning in worry) and send Will out on into the big scary world of kindergarten. This elusive round up is scheduled for Monday, April 10 at 8:30 AM. Will is taking it in stride "Cool!" but me, I'm not showing up so well, and turning rather green. Seriously, my stomach is full of knots.
With fearful scrolling I scanned the website and checked out the teacher biographies - some are NOT up to date, but there are some teachers I think Will would do better with. I'm not sure if with the public school system I really have a say in this matter? My request is Chasity. Can you please apply at NEISD and just teach kindergarten? Or maybe you could have a chat with Ms Becky and get Northern Hills accredited to teach kindergarten? My expense, I'll take out a loan, stand on the corner...
In reality, I am fearful of accepting the fact that Will is growing up. He will be totally in the hands of strangers in kindergarten. What about bullies? What about testing? What about the athletes and the GT kids? Oh, the worry. Maybe this is the problem having kids right out of college? - it's too easy to remember the drama involved in school coming of age-ness. So my friends, I'm looking for some therapy - if you have any coping methods or kidergatern prep websites (for Moms)can you send some my way?

I, too, am fearful of a) their bad font, and b) Sally McBee.
I don't know why, principals just scare me. Mine's name was Pope Crook, and she had an unnatural relationship with her blow dryer...
On the other hand, I'm sure Will will do fine. For you: muscle relaxers! ;)
Will is going to be fine-trust me, you are more concerned than he is. Besides, he has his buddy Jason to show him the ropes. I will aslo say Sally McBee is nice and I have no complaints now that he goes home to your excellent care :-)

Anne,
I linked to you from TMK (we go to church together) and thought I would chime in with my 2 cents. I have heard good things about Sally McBee from other friends at church who have kids in her school. I also know one of the 1st grade teachers at Bulverde and she is the sweetest thing. Her name is Jenni Parker and she was my daughter's 1st grade teacher at Hardy Oak last year. She is also good friends with one of TMK's friends from church (and one of mine also) Try not to worry about your sweet boy, he will love kindergarten and his Mom will survive it too! :-)
