We have been trying to get Bryce and Kaden into the Benjamin Franklin Charter School for a WHILE. We were put on the waiting list and we FINALLY just got the calls that they both were accepted. Yay! Bryce was first, we enrolled him and they moved Kaden up the list because he is a sibling and they called yesterday and said they can get him into kindergarten so I just went earlier to enroll him! It's great cause this school actually has the CHRISTMAS program, rather than the "Holiday" program which Bryce's old school had which had zero songs about Christ. They have a "back to basics" approach to teaching. They do the Pledge of Allegiance every morning at the flag raising ceremony and also have rows of seats in the classrooms, instead of 6 kids to a desk, which I always thought was way too distracting, which is the way they did it at Bryce's old school.
But the best part about it is that the second half of the year, they learn at the level of the grade above them so they are totally prepared for the next year.
We are all very excited.
