First let me say, Kat is thriving. She loves her school and her school loves her.
Now on to the bummer part. Drew is not thriving. Drew is bumming. Drew hates his school and we're finding that it just isn't a good fit for him. I desperately want to pull him. Peter wants to wait it out. P plans to go up there this week to observe Drew in action and to see if there is any way we can make this better but I really feel like this is a personality conflict and that Drew is never going to be a Montessori kid. He wants to work with people. He wants to play and run around and be silly. They want calm and quiet and independent work.
It's a rough situation to be in. We love Montessori. Love it. I think I have come to accept that it isn't for Drew but Peter is more willing to stick around and to try to get it to work. I feel like there are strikes against it right now. The price went up and it is hard to afford. Drew isn't happy. Drew would be happy at a play school. *sigh*
