Summer has flown by and Xander started first grade today. Yesterday he went over to the school and found out who his teacher was going to be (Ms. Goff) and met her. He's in a kindergarten/first grade mixed class with 13 first graders and 8 kindergartners. Unfortunately none of his friends from last year are in the same class, though the few behavior problems he had last year mostly involved those friends so things are probably set up for the best. He still gets to see them at recess and at his after school program. The mixed class should also work out well since the kindergartners go home about an hour and a half earlier than the first graders so the class size drops by almost half for that last hour. He's been tight-lipped about what went on today but he seemed to enjoy it. Some pictures from this morning are over at Flickr.
