Back to School!

1st day outfit! 

Emily has been back in school for about a week and a half now. So far, it has been going really well. She has a very full schedule - Honors French, Honors Art, Fitness, Honors Biology, Honors Algebra, Choir, AP Human Geography, and Honors English. It is definitely a full schedule, but she really likes all of her teachers and the content is manageable because she has (1) more French background than everybody else, (2) a half year of Algebra under her belt from her prior school, and (3) already read the books they are planning to tackle in English this year. 

Friend-wise, she seems to be doing great. She has people she enjoys sitting with at lunch, and she feels like it has been pretty easy to make friends in class. The only hiccup so far has been the bus schedule. It went fine at first, but there have been substitute bus drivers lately, and they don't seem to be capable of following the schedule. So, most mornings, I drop her off on my way to work so that she isn't late, and then she takes the bus home in the afternoon, but she has taken to getting off earlier and walking farther to get home a little quicker.
