MOVING ON...

This past week has been pretty evenful.
We got a letter last week from Davis School District informing us that they have reviewed Kantons file and they approve the request for a change. Kanton is MOVING on!!! We are so excited! He has made so much progress and is learning so much. They have decided he no longer needs to be in the special ed. program. This is a day we have been waiting for since he got his Autism diagnoses.
We had a meeting this week and he will now be attending Orchard Elementary in Bountiful. This will truely be such a blessing for me. He was attending Centerville Elementary. So I would drop him off and have to figure out something to do for 2 1/2 hours. It was just to costley to drive back and forth, so I spent the time there in Centerville, usually at the library.
His new school is just a couple streets away from our house. Now I will be able to get so much more done.
Friday was his last day. His teachers and the moms of the other kids were so sweet. They gave Kanton a little certificate and had cookies and a cute card that said Congradulations.
Monday he has an Eye appt. so he wont be going to school, so Tuesday will be his first day at his new school with his new class. He will continue to go 4 days a week from 9 - 11:30 am.
Thing are going to be very different from the other class, so Im really nervious for him.
One of the major issues Kanton has is he doesnt deal with change very well. He gets anxious and stressed out very easy. Im hoping it wont take too long for him to adjust.
We are so pround of Kanton!! We want nothing but the best for him.
Keep up the great work Pumpkin and keep MOVING ON!!
Mommy and Daddy love you!!
I'll post again soon to let ya'll know how things turn out!

That is so awesome, especially that he will be closer to home. I hope the adjustment goes quickly for him.
