This week, we've finished our 2026 school plans. This was for an 11 year-old who would be in 6th grade if he went to school. Even though he's in 6th grade, I do feel like our 2027 plans are solid 7th grade. We plan to begin our 2027 plans early, because we are expecting a grandbaby in a few weeks and we need all the buffer of time we can get before the baby comes.
