Charter School

We've decided to join a charter school. The main reason is financial. The school provides some funds that we can use to buy curriculum and provide classes for Rachel. She really loves her art and science classes and those can add up quickly. We had a great meeting with our educational specialist (ES). She is a former teacher who homeschooled her daughter while her son goes to SOTH (school outside the home). She seems like a terrific fit for our family.

Places we would like to go...

Huge field of dinosaur tracks found.

More than 1,000 dinosaur footprints along with tail-drag marks have been discovered along the Arizona-Utah border. The incredibly rare concentration of beastly tracks likely belonged to at least four different species of dinosaurs, ranging from youngsters to adults.

We are official!

I just filed our Private School Affidavit with the California Department of Education. I think we need a t-shirt. :-)
