Karri and I attended 'Back to School' night this evening at Thomas' high school, Seattle Prep. We got a modified copy of his schedule and walked through his classes, getting 10 minutes with each teacher and 5 minutes between bells. It was a little stressful trying to get to the next classroom before the bell!
This is our first year at Prep and we've been very impressed. Thomas is off to a great start - enjoying his classes and making lots of new friends (he's playing freshman football too - a topic for another post). It was nice to get a glimpse into his daily routine, meet his teachers, and get a better feel for the curriculum. We love the integrated curriculum, especially 'Collegio', which combines English (literature & composition), Social Studies (history, ancient civilizations) and Religion (scripture, church history, world religions). I'm sure its not for everyone, but this format would have made my high school experience a little more interesting.
We're excited for Thomas. It feels like he made a great choice in schools.
