I also teach for this school. Our outcomes have been very good. Our online high school kids outperformed the district kids on our state testing. We do have certificated teachers teaching our students. We have transitioned over the years from a self paced to a teacher driven model and it has had...
We do 6th grade online public school. Washington state has this option. Our daughter attends classes via computer with a math, science, and language arts teacher. She completes her day at 1:30 and heads to gym. It works for us, even on the challenging days. I am thankful for this option. When...
Hair wars!!! True here, too. We put on girl power music and sing loud while doing hair. Before we know it, the hair is done! Never enough sparkles, but done none-the-less!
I know my kiddo has a love hate relationship with me being at practice. My hubby has retired so he does the drop off most of the time. Once a month or so I go and watch a bit. My nerves are better and so are hers. My kiddo is on her journey. Sure we pay, drive, and cheer... But it is her journey.

Hubby and I always sit away from parents. I consider most of them really great friends, but we both love watching our girl and tend to not breath when she competes. We are able to focus on her. We cheer for every other gymmie and enjoy watching them all. At awards all parents gather and enjoy...

I always keep track, but DD doesn't ever want me to tell her where she is. I only keep track of her team. I love seeing all their progress from meet to meet. Many parents refer to my meet tracker to keep up with their kids as well.
My kiddo had a 9.0 vault last week and an 8.425 vault this week. Judges are different every week! She placed 9th last week 6th this week. Look at the overall scoring for the whole meet.
