For years I have wanted to move to the Metroplex. I grew up going there and have always loved it. I decided after returning to Angelo that I will move to the Metroplex once Devon has graduated high school which is next year. Over the past several months I have become close to a group of people through various sports. Logan has had the same coach for each of his sports; football, basketball, and now baseball. There are 4 boys that have been together on each of these teams and our families are getting to know each other well. Logan and Elijah have known each other since they were 4. Our families are growing close. Logan was added to this baseball team solely on the fact that he is part of this core... I found out today that Logan will now be allowed to stay at Fort Concho for 4 and 5th grade and continue to be in a confined group of GT students. While they have not made Ft Concho the official GT magnet school they are now giving parents the option to stay there. Apparently an entire 3rd grade class opted to do this last year and now the 4th grade GT teacher from Santa Rita who was not needed because these kids opted to stay at Ft Concho has now been hired to teach at Ft Concho. I figure by the time Logan gets to the 4th grade Ft Concho will be officially the magnet school. Which is awesome. They are working on a program to bump the kids a grade in math so that when they reach the 6th grade they can go straight into the AP class or something along those lines.
So I started writing this while on hold... I'm done holding and talking and don't feel much like saying anything else so THE END
So does this mean you are not planning on moving for a few more years?
ReplyDeleteI don't know what anything means anymore
ReplyDeleteI need more info on magnet schools
ReplyDeleteLogan is in a class with only GT students which means that there is no waiting around for slower children to catch up... there is no bordem... there is an understanding teacher that gets GT students so when my jabber jaw kid gets to jabbering he doesn't get in trouble everyday... cause they discuss things not just get lectured to. She gives them stuff to talk about.
