School Time

I hear lots of talk around my parent's house about the upcoming school year.  It appears that my run as a young man enjoying preschool is coming to an end.  There is a transition coming to my life, it is called Kindergarten.  It must be the biggest decision a little boy can make in their life, because my parents talk about it all the time.  They talk about private school, public school, magnet school, school performance numbers, etc. They even go so far as talk about moving just so I can attend a kindergarden that has a 5% increase is government issued and mandated testing.  I don't know how to break it to them that I do not trust the government to mandate what is best for my life. 

I am a bit worried about my parents, if they put this much effort into selecting a kindergarten how is it going to be when I start select colleges for myself.  Lord knows they are going to have serious opinions about where I attend school, even if most of schooling is based on how much effort you put into it and not some numbers on a spreadsheet.

Wish me luck.
