Less Bad and So-So

Less bad: Boylee's class size is 26, not 28. Not great, but at least as I understand it, this is the max and it won't be going up again.

So-so: The school won't be able to move into its shiny new space until September. The permitting process is taking a long time, and they discovered that the earliest we'd be able to move in would be April, just a few weeks before the end of school. So they'll move over the summer and welcome us to the new space when school starts up again. I'm bummed, because that space is so great, but we'll deal with it. For now we'll just deal with the highly-urban experience of our current school location. I always wondered how kids go to school in crowded places like Manhattan. Now I'm experiencing something like that: a tiny school, wedged into a tiny spot, with traffic issues, a non-stop stream of "interesting" people on the sidewalks surrounding the place, graffiti, and assorted other elements.
