通过和校长对话，终于获得校长的支持。首先学校支持娃run a chess club，为此学校order了chess sets，每星期一次，在special education 老师的教室里进行。娃已经和老师discuss了几次，都已经安排就绪，只等February 22考完computering contest和chess sets到货。另外，学校为了方便娃参加高中生才能参加的一些考试，专门register了这些考试，并开放给全校所有同学，这一下他们学校成为本地区最好的有extra curriculum的学校。更令我们高兴的是，为了准备二月份的Coding contest，学校专门从UW请来一个大三的物理系的学生专门辅导娃和其他几个同学的数学和Coding。
下面是special education的老师给我们的email，我们对学校的安排非常满：
“Hello Peter and Flora
I wanted to touch base and update you about some things happening at Vista Hills for Daniel.
1. Thank you for the Chess Club posters. The chess sets have been ordered, and I am just waiting for them to arrive. Daniel and I discussed that it might be best to use the Chess Club time for CCC practice right now and then start Chess Club a bit later on in the term. I will hold on to the posters for him.
2. Daniel and a group of students come on Day 3 and Day 5 (when they are available and interested) to practice for the CCC.
3. We have just connected with our Tutor in the Classroom tutor who is a Physics student at U of W and will be coming in to work on some math and computer/coding supports with some Grade 7 students. I think Daniel would be challenged and excited to connect with him as well. This is one way that we can provide extensions to him within our school building.
Let me know if you have any other questions or concerns. :) Happy New Year to both of you as well.”
