ISBV

Knowing that the school we chose for Evan would make a difference in his education and life, we had a hard time making the decision.  We checked out many options, and finally decided on ISBV.  This cute little school community with awesome teachers and teaching chinese and an "outside the box" IB curriculum.

We have loved this school!  Evan has too!  Of course, he is to the point that he appreciates a snow day every once in awhile.  But, I can tell that he feels connected to this place.  We were fortunate to have this school to start off his school years.  It has shown that school is safe, happy, fun second home.  He is friends with every child in the building and never has told me that a child was anything but.  This school has created a community of love and kindness, all while providing an excellent education.  But, unfortunately, it was too good to be true.  And that keeping this little community of 55 kids together is not financially possible for the school district.

I'd had a few tears about the closing of ISBV.  Evan has not yet.  But, I worry about the feelings he will have when the time comes to close that door to ISBV on the last day and face the unknown out their in a new school for second grade.  Maybe it won't phase him much, he doesn't quite realize how good he really has it there.  You can only see from a parent's perspective.  The perspective that you want the best for your children, and here it is, in this place.
