Yesterday I finally received the long-awaited e-mail. Jonathan & Daniel have been approved for WAVA. We'll have to see how this goes. I did write to the lady who helped me through the end part. I told her how I had to run everywhere because I didn't know or understand what I was supposed to be doing. Things like obtaining the district release form and the district notification form -- well, the district release form is actually an attendance form that could have been obtained by walking up the alley to the school behind us!!! Because I didn't know this, we drove to Oakland Alternative School, went to the wrong building there, found the right building, got the right form, but no one there could help me ... had to run downtown to the Central Administration Building (which, by the way, is a HUGE brick building - all beautfiul and new-looking ... while Oakland looked like a prison. Side note: did you know that schools are given $9,000 per kid each school year?! Isn't that insane??? I found out what they do with a lot of that money when I visited the Central Administration Building!). The people there were nice enough, even helpful. Found out more info from them than I had from WAVA. :o) Oh, while I was there, I asked them if they got money for homeshool kids. They told me, "no." Then one lady said, "We should! We give them money!" (when I told Jef he said I should have asked where this money is and could I get some of it please? :o) ) I found that humorous. I had thought if they were getting money, that could be why they were so slow and unhelpful. The Steilacoom School District will get some money because we signed up part-time. All that to say this -- Friday I received three e-mails from K-12. Two were telling me Jonathan & Daniel were approved and the third was to help me see how to use the site. :o) Hopefully the curriculum is rushing here! :o) I'll keep you posted. |
