School Daze

Many of you have asked about Jessica's new school.  She did not go back to her high school in Frisco.  We have her at a wonderful school in Carrollton just 5 minutes from my office.  The St. Anthony School is a therapeutic school for kids in K-12 with all kinds of needs.  She loves it and has made a lot of new friends.  There are only 27 students in high school and the curriculum is geared towards each student. 

She has to wear a uniform, which is absolutely awesome.  I never hear, "But, I don't have anything to wear."  And, I never have to say, "You need to change shirts.  I don't think that one is appropriate."  I wanted to take a picture of her in her uniform, but she rolled her eyes and thought that was a silly idea.  She looks really cute in her khaki pants and navy blue polo.  Although, we had to stop off at Office Depot to buy some supplies for work, and people kept thinking she was an employee.

The best part about her new school is that she smiles everyday.  School has been a huge stress for her most of her life, but especially since 8th grade.  To have her at a school where doesn't feel stressed out about her abilities, and knows that she fits in is a huge relief.  I am so thankful that we heard about this school, and was able to get her in there.
