A New Start

As of this week, the new trimester has started for Boobie at school. Costa Rican schools do trimesters instead of semesters. Back State-side, we had 2 parts to the school year, not 3; From September to December, and then January to June.

Costa Rica divides up their trimesters from February to May, May to August and August to November or something similar to that.

So Boobie finished his first round at the new school and though I wanted to have great news to report, it wasn't so great at the end. We're still working with him, making sure that he gets a better start to the trimester this time around. But he pretty much did poorly in Spanish, Social Studies and Math. He didn't even break into the 70's for either subject. : (

On the bright side, English and Science are his strong suits, so he did better in those areas.

Not sure what he got for gym, art or Christian Ed. Hoping he at least got an 80 in those subjects. I can't stand the thought of his report card not being up to par yet again, after so much hard work.

Well, at least he gets another shot at proving to himself, us and his teachers that he can do the work. Here's to a great second part of the trimester and a brand new start on the right track.
