During the course of kindergarten/1st grade Dalton had trouble with focus and health. He was diagnosed with PANDAS at the end of kindergarten. This is an autoimmune disorder that is caused by strep. It affects his ability to focus, causes him to have facial and verbal tics, joint pain, seperation anxiety/emotions are affected, and diffuculty sleepy when he is having flare ups and other issues.
A combination of health and him being extremely smart caused many issues at school and we began praying about homeschool. I had all ready been doing preschool at home with Rose and loved teaching her. God just began to show us signs that this was right and so in August we began our homeschool journey.
We are loving this experience and so glad God opened the doors for us to be able to participate in the Jackson Classical Homeschool Program. They go to school two days a week and do school at home three days a week. This program is wonderful and Dalton and Rose are both loving it so much. We are going to take it year by year but for now it works for us!
