Spring 2019 was our first time opting out. First day didn’t go well. After keeping our daughter(3rd grade) home on day 2 and a long conversation with the someone at the ISD building she made sure the next day(make up day) opt out went well. I had more issues from the principle then the actual ISD.
Opting out this year (4th grade) as well.

Plan on refusals again this year for 5th and 6th.
