Do you 'enjoy' spending time with your kids?

[ Reply | More ]That was us last year and we were pretty bummed. But you will always know that the mix of kids you will be with at 9 is the same as Anderson (but with crummy lottery numbers). As far as I can tell (and of course, I had to rationalize it!) Anderson is not that much better except for the middle school option. And by that time, you and your DC may be ready to move on to a new setting anyway. Welcome - it's a great school and restored my faith in public school system...
