Today was Brian's first day of "real" school. After much contemplation, we decided to enroll him in the Little Rock Public School District. He is attending Fair Park Early Childhood Center. It is a model facility for pre-kindergarten students. There are 9 classrooms of Pre-K 4 year olds. Each class has 20 students and 2 teachers. Brian is in Kriz Kids with Mrs. Lori Kriz, and Mrs. Debbie Odom. He is in school 5 days/week from 7:30-2:30. They eat lunch in the cafeteria, attend PE and Music, go to the library, and play on the playground. All of this is in addition to the normal curriculum designed to prepare them for Kindergarten, and "playing" in activity centers. They wear a uniform, blue or khaki pants/shorts, with a yellow, red or light blue polo shirt. On Friday they can wear the school t-shirt with jeans.
I don't know whether I am excited or sad that my almost 5 year old is going to school all day everyday. I guess a little of both. I know I have prepared him well for this transition. He did great! Of course his favorite part of the day was playing outside.
