Great News

Well we had an idea but its now been confirmed. Owen is doing awesome in school. It didn't take long for us to figure out our summer of hard work had paid off! He took his benchmark tests and rocked them a few weeks into school. He has no trouble completing his homework nightly what used to be a constant struggle and always resulted in tears. Homework is even sometimes done on the bus on the way home so he can head out an play. He was moved into the middle spelling group and learning the words has been easy! He's a  different kid. I am so so happy with his teacher. You see I didn't pick the teacher that the three parents of kids who are teacher picked, nope I picked the teacher that the reading specialist told me was the best. She's not warm and fuzzy but I she is nice but stern and she is giving Owen exactly what he needs. I couldn't be happier!!!! He got his first report card a few weeks ago and he on grade level in all areas!!!!! We are still tutoring but we are now just once a month or sometimes two. I read with him daily and we mix up what home
school things we are working on taking a more relaxed approach and well just like everyone said he will be "fine" hahaha ha never mind the $1000.00 in tutoring, summer school, $2000.00 in school supplies and countless hours and hours of hard work see he will be fine!!! I would do it all over again in a skinny minute and its over !!!!
