Day 259 in 2020

We had a lot of false starts to this school year. The first day of public school we struggled to get logged on, only to find, when we did, that we had the time wrong and Calvin had missed his class by a half hour. Weeks ago we connected, or thought we had connected, with the private (home)school we chose for this year's eduction guide, but as most kids started school last week we were still trying to secure places in online classes for the year. It was a rocky start, but here we are. The first day of Calivn's high school career. Honors Biology, Probability and Statistics, Honors U.S. History, Honors English 9, and High School Spanish 2, and Latin year 1, half year studies in Psychology, Programming, and Art History via supported online or homeschool, basson in the Dexter High School Concert Band. It's going to be a great first year of high school, plus choir and dance team.

That was the longest four day week I've ever experienced.

Day 253 in 2020

Day two, better than day one—he actually made it to his one class, but we're still waiting on Clonlara's counselors to contact us before we can get him into his online classes. The first lessons of this year: technology can be hard, delaying decisions until the last minute has real consequences (in the form of delayed class starts), and we are very, very fortunate to have such options at our disposal for us to mess up.
