My son started special ed preschool today. So what do I do to prepare? Nothing, just make sure I work half days all week. I had to do the same with my daughter 12 years ago and just like last time, transportation messed up. They thought he was in the ECEAP program and they don’t have busses in our area in the afternoon. Well, one phone call to the teacher and she was mad, livid, and generally not a happy camper. L is special ed not ECEAP; therefore, he gets transportation round trip from home to school – just like his older sister does. Some things never change. Hopefully, this will be resolved within a couple of days.

L is in the afternoon session which goes 12:30p-3:10p. It was a beautiful sunny spring day when I dropped him off, and as predicted he had a total meltdown – totally expected. When I came to pick him up, I could hear him start to cry. I didn’t get to have much conversation with the teachers, but it sounds like I guess he didn’t have too tough a time at school.  I can’t wait for him to start riding the bus. That ought to be a fun time for the bus driver.
