So We Aren't a Year Behind

Today we took Caroline to the private school for her interview and testing.  I was very nervous abut her placement test because of the spotty homeschooling she has had this year.  Well, I guess her natural ability trumped output this year because she placed into seventh grade math, eighth grade reading, and was solidly a sixth grade speller.  Amazing!  She was so proud, and so encouraged that she hasn't lost as much as we feared.  Now they will deliberate and let us know tomorrow if they think it would be a good fit or not.  We think they will say yes, but can't be sure.  The interview went well, we thought, although Caroline got frustrated with how much we talked instead of her and was showing it.  We were very honest about her bipolar condition and the different schools we have tried that were not a good fit. Hopefully she'll be accepted. Even if she isn't, this was a big boost for Bill and I and Caroline as far as her education goes.  At least she will probably place into seventh grade next year at whatever school she goes to.  Thank God!
