Paideia Academy

Today was Rachael's orientation day at school.  She met her new teacher, Mrs. Rothstein, and saw her classroom.  She also had school picture day & picked up her "spirit wear" t-shirt that I had pre-ordered for her last month.   Every Friday they get "out of uniform" days, as long as they have a "spirit wear" shirt on with jeans.  


Rachael was VERY disappointed that her best friend, since they were tiny babies, Ella Arntz, who lived next door to us in the condo, isn't in her class.  First of all, it's amazing that they even both got into Paideia Academy with how competitive it is to get in!  Originally Ella got in & we had not.  Late July we got a call that Rachael got in!  We were so excited, but that had me struggling to quickly reschedule our August.  She was supposed to be going to her last week of YMCA camp August 8-12.  But, Paideia starts school August 8!

So, even though it kind of screwed up August for us, and it was a struggle to pay for her uniforms with such short notice (man, are they expensive!!!!) we are excited that she got into such a WONDERFUL school.  It goes from K-8, and now that she is in, Daniel will automatically get in.  It will be so great for Rachael, we're excited for school to begin!
