Parent-Teacher Conference

Last week was my first ever parent-teacher conference.  I wasn't sure if I should even go or not, as I talk to the teacher frequently and knew that if there was anything to report I would have already heard about it.  But I am glad that I went.  It was nice to be able to see what she was teaching Kai and the approach that she was using with him one-on-one.  It made me proud to hear that he is already working on a kindergarten level and that he is one of the more advanced kids in the class.  She told me that Kai makes her feel like a rock-star!  She says he is attentive and helpful and just a good kid.  So fun!  Finally, she told me that Ms. Cathy (a woman who oversees the "child find" program and makes sure that the kids have the appropriate specialists) calls Kai the "star student".  Wow!  I love Kai and I am so proud of him.  School has been so great for him.  I'm thrilled with his progress and the program that we choose for him.

This is Kai's official class picture (the one they use for projects).  I laughed
at his closed eyes and his teacher said, "But that's so Kai."  And she's right.
It is SO Kai!
