Summer school...

He didn't qualify for esy, extended school year. The progress he made was sufficient for someone with his special needs. He didn't have esy previously, likely since the 15 months of residential met those underlying social impairments and he had no advocate to address such concerns. Ya can't win 'me all. I got the, "sit down and shut up," response from the district, in their cordial administrative manners. So, tomorrow I begin transporting to the program he was eligible for. Being him there by 8am!! This is Newby, but Buzzy is glad because I said I will drive him too so he will not have to board esy bus at 710am. Then I signed both of them p to get bussed to a local boys and girls club, hopefully that will serve as awesome as I think it will for our schedules. That way I didn't have to be there to pick Newby up at 11 sharp. If the club serves awesome, they will participate in swimming, games, crafts, kitchen help, and other activities before getting picked up for therapy on a couple days and the 3rd I am lining up rides or will run in to get them too, so looking forward to them having another activity they will enjoy. Even though it is early, I am looking forward to getting out of the house those mornings too! Now you know how sad my life really is;). This should be the last year of him not qualifying though, so that shall be addressed in the school year. Fuzzy and Newby both go to new schools, one up, this year, so that will be exciting for them. We are so blessed and I am so thankful for all my kids and they bring joy to my heart in their strides, leaps, and bounds.
