Last night was Ashley's Open House at her school. She goes to a private school and usually before any event, they have a short program with singing.
The 4th and 5th grade choir sang a song about excuses why I don't have my homework. It was really cute.
I've never had any desire to go to a private school and have always thought public schools were just fine to go to and you learned just as well. Ashley has been at Grace Baptist Academy since Kindergarten and she loves it. She even decided she wanted to go to a public school in 3rd grade, so she went to one here in ER. After a week, she was back at Grace. I didn't realize how advanced she was in her learnings.
The teachers and faculity at Grace are really nice and geniunely sincere. The Principle and Head Master always speak to me whenever I'm there and they pass me.
My thoughts of private schools have changed since I was growing up and I hope Ashley will stay in one until she graduates.
We've been thinking of GPS starting in 6th grade.
