This morning dropping Julia off at Kindergarten (Stu is still sick so no bus for us) I ran into the retired teacher from last year, the outspoken one who had been in Stu's class for several weeks when his teacher was so sick (read: burnt out). She was replacing one of the kindergarten teachers today and I just caught her as they were going in.
Me : Mme XX, I'm glad I ran into you. I wanted to thank you for the talk we had about Stuart.
Her : Well I really wasn't very discreet.
Me : No, I wanted to tell you how much it helped us. We've decided not to come back next year, we're changing schools.
Her : Good! I'm glad to hear it!
Me : We're going to take the kids to the Alternative school (and which one).
Her : PERFECT! What a great environment for Stuart! That's a wonderful decision.
Me : Oh thank you - that means a lot to me. We feel it's the right thing but your opinion means a lot to me.
Her : I think that's a great decision. And... I strongly suspect that he might be gifted. I would think about having him tested next year...
Anyhow, that's not the whole conversation, she also said it might Stu time to settle in and things might not change right away (his motivation) but all in all a great conversation... Not to mention she was a teacher for 35+ years and part of the committee that started our school board's gifted program.
I know I should just trust my own instincts, but honestly? I am a sucker for feedback.
