This time next week we have hit the time change. I will also be officially homeschooling my kids. This is something that has been on my heart for 5 years now. I noticed a change in Tristian's behavior when we moved 2 years ago. Since then it has just gotten worse. It hit the breaking point a little over a week ago. The teacher called me about concerns about his behavior. He was no longer acting up just at home anymore. A week later (Friday) he had to have an office referral.
Call it mom's intuition or whatever. But I knew when I had the conference call with his teacher it was time for change. Something at that school is just not right with my child. I'm not saying it's a bad school, or the teacher is bad. I just know he needs a change of environment. We have done so much research in options. Prayed, prayed and prayed. Talked to many people. We decided the best thing for our family right now is to home school.
We are waiting out the week because he has TAKS test this week. Where I hate the tests, we decided it was best he took it. One, if things don't work out we want him to be able to easily re-enroll in school. Two- he thought he was getting out of the test and got snotty about it towards his teacher. Then we decided not to pull them mid week. So Friday will be their lat day in public school. Monday I will start being their teacher.
