yea he was exhausted but he wanted to go to school so he was 3 hours late today but better late than being absent. But he had a blast at the concert last night so glad it didnt goon all night cause it was being held right behind my house.. kind of cool having seether in my backyard haha.
it's american schooling but run by the department of defense.
what a crazy night we had went to a Seether concert and came home around 8 pm tried to got o bed figuring my son had school and my nieghbors decided to throw a party so we ended not being able to go to sleep till like 1 am this sucks no school for the boy
my son did 1 yr of pre-k and 1 months of kindergarten in GA they kept saying that there was something wrong mentally with my child ( military docs said whatever he is normal) took him to WA did the rest of kinderarten yr there and they said the same stuff he might have aspergers is wayyy behind blah blah.. got him tested for adhd/add which he has a slight case of brought himto Guam held him back in kindergarten and is excelling they are wanting to put him in the gifted classes cause he is way beyond his class. they said that i shouldnt have held him back but it didnt hurt him it will only help him.. and the curriculum is way better in DODEA
ummn i am not to sure on how long it will be 2-3 yrs i think. yea he did sonar supervisor school in wa.. we liked wa as for a shore duty type of move but not a sea duty :/
we are hopeing to stay here for shore or go some place else over seas the DODEA schools seem to be way better then schools back in the states for my son..
CT 6 months, GA 3yrs, WA 1 yr, and now we are here in Guam for 3 yrs. and no my hubs has not done shore duty he oblaserved (lol i dont know how to spell it) meaning he is doing back to back sea tours.. when we are done with this command he is up for shore duty.. he could have done shore duty but we decided not to..
