Last year in Mother's Day Out, her teacher had to quit at the end of October--just a couple of months into the school year. Since I taught the class right next door, I was the sub for her class about 1/2 of the year so that made it a little easier, but the constant transition/turmoil of not knowing who'd be the teacher each time she went made it hard. We made it through the year & she was excited when she learned that Mrs. Page would be her Kindergarten teacher. (She was also Savannah & Samuel's.)
Yesterday, that calm & stability all changed. Mrs. Page sent home a note w/ all the students explaining that she's taken a new job & 2 weeks from Friday, she will be leaving. Sarah's heartbroken. We all love you, Mrs. Page!!
I know that the school will make this as easy as possible for the kids, so please pray with me that they are able to find someone who closely matches Mrs. Page's teaching style so that the kids will have an easier time transitioning.

My granddaughter is also a student in Ms. Page's class.......Joyce Lynn.........I hope this doesn't adversely affect her stability and progression of learning......She along with her brother live with their Dad who lives with us, his parents and every other week they trade homes between Dad and the other grandparents.......All of us together try to keep their environments stable and happy..........we even go to the same church and all sit together during the services...........Joyce's brother is ADHD and we all thought he would be the one that we would have challenges with, but it has proved to be just the opposite..........Joyce struggles with concentrating and staying on task and doing her work, and Ms. Page seems to be the kind of teacher who understands Joyce's struggles and was working with her and we were seeing marked improvement............I pray this will not set her back........We love Ms. Page too, and will greatly miss her.............I have been keeping up with your journal and following Andrew's anger issues and am most interested in the RAD................especially the two different ways it can be expressed...........Andrew's seems to have gone the way of exploding with physical force but I wonder about my grandson, Joyce's brother, who is not a very demonstrative child...........for a long time after his mother deserted him and Joyce, if you tried to hug him, he would put out his hand and say "No hugs, No kisses"..........if you got love from him, it had to be on his terms and we just accepted that..........he has loosen up some, but still runs away from affection most of the time...............but when he does hug me or kiss me goodnite, it is so special............will be interested in future entries about Andrew and RAD.......Granny J
