Report card time!
Maeve is in a class where her teachers co-op. Ms Foran is tuesday-thursday and Tony is Monday and Friday. There are 20 children in her class! 2 of the children in her class have special needs and they have a support worker named John. Let me tell you right away I do not enjoy the tues -thursday teacher and i was considering taking Maeve to another school after our first meeting with the teacher. Maeve absolutely, would not ever change schools so I decided to cool my heels and wait and see. I am so glad we did wait, Tony brings something special to the classroom. All the children love and adore him! Last month we had a parent teacher conference a goal setting conference if you will. I was happy to see that Tony 'gets' Maeve he is very proud of her accomplishments and both teachers enjoy having Maeve in their class. So Maeve got her report card and she is fully meeting the teachers expectations. These grades the kids don't get a's b's c's they get N(not approaching) A(approaching) M(meets expectations) F(fully meets expectations) and E(Exceeds expectations). Michael and I are so proud to have Maeve, she has friends in every class, loves to help and loves her teachers!
This year Maeve is on student council and goes to meetings on her lunch break. She has a 'big buddy' named Suraya who plays games with her, reads to Maeve and lets Maeve read to her. I am proud of Maeve on a daily basis as she constantly amazes me! She has a wicked sense of humor and has a depth of understanding far beyond her years!
I was pretty shocked to find this in her backpack on friday:
Yes, that is Maeve's first script! I am constantly amazed by this kid! She is so quiet, calm and down to earth and now she is going to be an actress! ok ok i'm probably putting the cart before the horse but what is a blog but a place to brag about your children!

But,But,But, you didn't answer my question......does the tues to thurs teacher seem to meet your approval any better now? Have you warmed up to her? doesn't seem to effect/affect(sheesh) Maevey in the least.

No, i still don't care for her at all. Maeve, "Ms Foran is great" so much for my vote!

good for you Maeve! I love your quiet courage and your ability to make decisions for yourself. When are you starring in your play. I would very much like to come over for it if that is possible.
I love both of you very much!

Funnily, she volunteers herself for these things and then forgets to tell us. We find out second hand.
"...Maeve is on student council..." Whaat!?
"...Maeve was part of the improve play..." Huh?!
"...I found Maeve's christmas concert script in her backpack..." Really?!
I know I'm only Dad, but perhaps we should talk about these things first.
