Going back to school el natual?

Well "summer" is over. My daughter was home schooled last year. She thinks she is ready to go back to elementary school.
We live in a time when openness or "coming out" is accepted. This summer she gained a great deal of confidence. Going to public places without a hat or wig. She wants to go to 4th grade without anything on her head! We did manage to stay in contact with some of her friends from previous school years. She is fine without anything on head wile playing with them at home.
But school, is not the same as the grocery store. I have reservations about "exposing all" the first day. Maybe on the the third of forth day. Like a Friday.
As a father, I want to protect my daughter from any possible hurts.
Are there any adult children out there that has had any experience with this first day thing? Thanks

Thank you Alex, You are on the money. You described my daughter to a tee. She is the bravest little girl I know.
I will never forget the day, I had to tell her she was losing all her hair. She has gone from a near recluse to the brave kid she is. I love her so much for it.

I am gabydus. She does have friends that love her. I think that is what gives her strength to face others that do not understand.

Hello Julianna, we are in the Orlando area. Well, it February now. She did end up keeping on a wig. But her class mates know. They have been amazed at how "fast" her hair can grow!
You survived middle school, we have that to go yet. Alayna hates it when the younger kids ask, are you a boy or girl? She is very proud of being a girl, and takes offence. I try to explain, they are just little kids trying to figure things out. Good luck with HS

Hi, I am a novice teacher and I completely agree with your post, public schools are very far behind private ones, and from personal experience I can say that children simply will not have time to learn a topic in one lesson and move on to a new one the next, but we are deprived of bonuses for not fulfilling the curriculum, and besides, not all children understand the responsibility that falls on their shoulders at such a young age. By the way, I record a video that helps parents to put on the right path and find a common language, and for this I use a video converter from movavi https://www.movavi.com/learning-portal/best-free-video-converters-f... , because it is simple and very convenient, definitely worth the money
