First Day of Kindergarten

Brayden’s first day of Kindergarten at Academy Charter School was August 13, 2014.  Mike and I took him to his class at 11:45 AM for his 12:05 PM start of half-day kindergarten.  Brayden met some of his friends from his preschool Primrose where he has gone for a few years now.  Getting ready this morning, he was so excited and wanted to go to school and learn!  He felt that he is in kindergarten now and is a “big boy” which meant there were certain things that big boys do. 
Mike and I went to pick him up after class at 3:25 PM and when he saw us, he was so excited and wanted to tell us about his day.  He said that he read books, played on the playground, and colored!  We are blessed to have had Brayden get into such a challenging school such as Academy Charter.  Mike and I are confident that Brayden will continue to be challenged academically and learn how to mentor younger children. 
On a normal day, we will take Brayden to Primrose where he will receive their half-day kindergarten academics in the morning and then Primrose will bus him to Academy Charter then pick him up afterwards.  This works out well because Brayden is in a great school and is essentially receiving two kindergarten curriculums. We are so proud of Brayden and all he has accomplished thus far.  He lights up a room anytime he walks in and has the biggest heart of any 5 year old I’ve ever met.
Brayden means the world to us!  As an FYI:  At Brayden’s 5-year checkup, he was 3 foot 9 inches and weighed 50 pounds!  Until the next post!
