Is there going to be a language issue for a while, msbelle, or does Mac have some English?

Also, I used to work afterschool progams in NYC -- you can look into the local YWCAs, because very often they will pick up from neighborhood schools, and then you pick up your child from there. I worked at Lenox Hill Neighborhood Association (E. 70th St., IIRC), which was like a Y but not, and that's what we did.

Ohio's Secretary of State is no peach, either.

Imagine if he were governor....

msbelle, in addition to what AmyLiz mentioned, I know there's no after-care program at our school, but there is a Y bus to the aftercare program at another school in town.

We have that at my son's school. It works out great for his best friend. They have homework time, then play time. His mom says it's worth the money for them.

He has been learning English since August, but I do not expect him to have a ton. The school is a full-integration school though and so English aid will be directly in the class with him.

Yay!

How are you doing with your language tapes, msbelle?

the tapes I initally got were useless and outdated I found out. We have a phrsebook and my brother has a CD and lesson book set that I think he is finding useful.

It's shit like this that makes me wake screaming at night.

Or possibly city rec centers with programs.

Kids are so much more facile in learning languages than adults. I hope he has an easy transition.
