New Day, New School

I have been increasingly irritated with Cyrus's school in these past few weeks for numerous reasons. First, they are doing a terrible job with the potty training.  I have specifically told them how he needs to sit on the potty (sideways) to be comfortable enough to pee. They have not done what I asked them to do and in return Cy is not peeing on the potty. He's not peeing in his pants either, so, he is holding his pee ALL day until I get there in the afternoon to go. I am furious!

Secondly, yet another teacher has resigned and he has a new teacher, Ms. Jennifer who I just don't like. She is disconnected and has a "can't be bothered" attitude which drives me crazy. I could go on and on but there is no point, the point is that I am done. I was going to try to stick it out for the remainder of the school year (9 weeks) but I'm just done. I called KinderCare today and they said they (luckily) have a space available for him now. I picked Cy up from Starling today and took him to KinderCare for an hour after school today to introduce him to his class and his new teacher. We are going to go back tomorrow for the same amount of time. Thursday afternoon we leave for Banner Elk for the weekend and on Monday he will go to KinderCare from 7:30 - 11:30. Tuesday morning I will drop him off for the full day and we'll be good to go from there hopefully.

I am concerned about taking him out of the only school he knows and away from his little friends, but, the school is changing and all the teachers (except Ms. Brittany) are new and I feel no connection to it anymore. His new teacher, Ms. Carla, seems great and interested in teaching the children rather than sitting on the sidelines.  I will say a little prayer that this is the right decision for Cy and that he will continue to grow. He is so smart and so interested in everything and I feel like we need to foster that at the moment.
