So much drama

So my daughter is in 6th grade, almost finished with it and lately things have been coming up that I just still can't wrap my head around. Bullying is starting to become much more apparent than in previous years, and there is a clear line of who is who. In this sense, and many others, I am glad that next year she will be attending a magnet school instead of the one here on post. The teachers here are horrible and nobody cares about the students. Recently an issue arose where a girl in my daughter's class brought a condom to school and other things occurred. Whytney did the right thing and told me about it when she came home. The only reason this issue was even addressed at school is because I sent an email to ever teacher, the principal and the superintendent of the district. I never should have had to go that far but the school literally does nothing. Then I see on the news that the other county district is passing stricter bullying laws. You would think that this county would get their head's out of their behinds and do that as well. Oh well. Only so much I can fight the system. This is why I try to stay out of Whyt's school stuff mostly.

So we got turned down by EFMP for us moving to Ft. Campbell. We have 2 years left in the army and then we are finished with it. Chris wants to use his GI Bill to go to school and become a nurse. I am also going to concentrate on getting back into teaching once we are up there. The girls are happy because they can stay here and don't have to move again for awhile. And Whytney will be back just in time to start high school. I hope her high school experience is better than a friend of mine's daughter's experience has been so far.
