School!

Greetings blog readers! This time I would like to tell you a little bit more about my school and why I enjoy going to school every day.

Walden Community School was started in 2002 by my mother. I was in first grade when it was started and has been there ever since. The school started off with only two students, me and my sister, Katie. Walden has gone through many changes. We had two students, then four, then ten, then four again, and now we are back to ten! What I love about it is that I have so many friends. I don’t have as many as someone that was in a public or private school, but we are all pretty close. I try hang out with everyone, even the people that are six years younger than me. Walden believes in hands on learning and child center learning. Most public school kids have about 8 different classrooms and eight different teachers. I on the other hand have two teachers, and only one classroom. For our core curriculum we use a virtual school. I really like using virtual school. My favorite part of doing school work on the computer is that I can take tests on Saturdays. Most people would probably say, “Why would you want to take a test on a Saturday?” I that’s what I like about it, I can work when I want, not what my classmates and teachers want. I just like to wake up on a Saturday and take a test. I love waking up and going to school. I don’t really know why I just really like to go to school.

Now you know more about my school and why I enjoy going to school every day.
