public school system

ok.. so my daughter goes to school "a" for speech right now.. shes not old enough for the 4k program until this fall.. and she was able to enter the early intervention part of the district for her speech issues from her jaw problems.. but anyways.. my niece and nephew both go to school "a" also. and I would love for Karington to go to this school for 4k this fall and thereafter.. because school "b" that we are zoned for (we live 1/4 of a mile away from school a's zone! rawr) school b sucks! they have failed in academics several times recently and I do NOT want her going there.. even the teachers i know who work there say not to let my kid go there. So i called the school district and told them how i wanted her to go to school A for 4k since she already goes to their speech and all.. they said "no" first. then they said i have to register her at school B and submit a request for transfer for those reasons and that they would review it and let me know before school is out this year.. I figure the chances of being approved are slim to none.. and it irritates the **** out of me! I pay taxes for the district, i drive my child to school so why can't she go where i want her to go? I could understand if she was a bus rider.. but shes not. Plus it would be sooo much easier car pooling with my sister in law for pick up because they come here to our "daycare" at work after school.. i dunno i just felt like venting im really RAWRRR this week.. ive been eating like a dang horse.. and its time for aunt flo.. and im ill!!! sorry for the vent!!! but i need to get it off my chest before i go why do we want to eat so badly when we are stressed?!?!?! it drives me NUTS.. i even think "i dont need to eat this, im not hungry" and end up eating it.. and feeling bad afterwards bc i wasnt even hungry. ugh. i need an emotional break. jen

Vent away honey. I just had some Whoppers and some skittles because my appointment with my therapist only appeased me for a little while. she gave me some coping pointers, but I am trapped in this hellhole. Were you still interested in Girls night tomorrow? I'm thinking I could sneak out if I showed up later...like after I got Teagan in bed late...you know? Kathy

Jen, There is a program that the governor developed that your child does not have to go to an underperforming school. Check into that also. Jennifer
