Ever since
Little A was born, the hubs and I always discussed selling our house and moving
before we had to enroll her in kindergarten.
When we bought our house, we were childless and although school
districts weren’t necessarily the furthest from our thoughts, they were not something
we were worried about at the time.
Through the
years we have heard good things and bad things about the elementary school in
our neighborhood. It used to be more bad
than good. Slowly through the years I
have started to hear more good.
Regardless, we have still been undecided on what to do about what school
we wanted to send her to. She goes to
preschool in a totally different school district and we could have petitioned
to get her into their elementary school, but it’s only good for
kindergarten. I know it would buy us
another year, but still, come first grade we’d be back to square one again. I looked into a Christian private
school. It not only is out of our way,
buts it’s out of our budget as well.
To date I
have not enrolled her into any school.
Tomorrow that is going to change.
On Friday I
had lunch with a business associate and the topic of school’s came up. He gave me a lot of insight on the elementary
school in our district and was surprisingly, laying a lot of my concerns to
rest. He and his wife have two children in
the district that Little A goes to preschool in, but is quite familiar with our
elementary school. His wife interned
there and although she teaches at a completely different school now, she still
has a lot of involvement with the school.
She along with another close friend of mine that interned there, said
that it’s a nice school and has come a long way. My friends’ wife is really pleased with it
and says that it’s a great elementary school.
(Unfortunately, the middle and
high school does not have such great reviews.
But I guess we have a few years until we reach that point.)
So we have
decided, as of this fall, Little A is going to be a Deep Creek Hornet
