Kayla started 4th grade in September. She ended up getting the teacher she had been crossing her fingers for. But two weeks into the school year, we learned they were bringing in another 4th grade teacher and that the classes were going to get mixed up. Kayla was one of the unfortunate ones who ended up switching to the new teacher's class and she was devastated. She is still struggling with this teacher. Her biggest let down is that the teacher promises the kids certain things and then doesn't follow through. It's been an adjustment for all of the kids - but we've turned it into a lesson for Kayla that life doesn't always go the way you want, and sometimes you just have to roll with the punches. We still hear stories of disappointment, almost weekly, but it hasn't stopped her from doing her best. That's all we can ask for.
