I went to school today to volunteer in Nathan's kindergarten class.

The lack of supervision on the playground is a big worry to me as well. My daughter in Kindergarten currently has an aide, who watches her in the playground as well as classroom. I keep hearing how well she is doing in the classroom. Her IEP calls for a re-evaluation of her need for an aide in December, I am worried they will try to take the aide away.

I am much more concerned about the unsupervised playground, than I am about the structured classroom. I worry that it would be like throwing my daughter to the wolves to leave her on the playground without her aide.

Unfortunately that's how it is at the preschool-2nd grade school here too. They've had kids wander off and kids seriously hurt because of it. Thank goodness my kids don't go there anymore.
