Today the school to which my children attended for the last three years starts classes for the new year.
Its bittersweet. My kids loved the time there and the friends they made. And though we are on the road, we will make stops back in to check on out building, pickup the mail, stop by the Library ( hi Mavet!), and see their friends.
This year for school we are #roadschooling.
The public school system of KS offers several options for nontraditional/virtual schooling. We are enrolled in (fancy words to follow) a Virtual Preparatory Academy.

I am nervous.

I have all the books, they were shipped to us, along with answer keys, etc. They will each have a provided computer and a teacher that will help us all out. Its just a lot to look at, all stacked in the containers I purchased for fitting in to camper and being accessible.

*after ish photo. This is just the third grade, one for my teacher manuals, and one for the pre-k/paper supplies….
I will be buying two more today for the other kid, aka 2nd grade ‘stuff’.

My kids are smart. I don’t say that to brag. But I will not have to do much explaining/helping besides the initial instructions before each lesson.
I am still nervous.
I want to be able give them structure with this learning experience and still be open to the spontaneous adventure of daily/weekly being on the road in a new location and what it has to bring.

I am not alone. I know there are hundreds of families who do this.
My husband is excited and totally supportive. He has expressed that this is not just on me, its for us to tackle together.
And we will.

That’s really what this adventure is about for us.
Being together.
