Why change her? Why not let her develop in her own way? We have more than enough aggressive extroverts in this world. Gentleness is a treat.
good post darla ..I agree it takes time for children to get used to school/kindergarten she will be okay , shyness is something that many go through all will be well .
Kindergarten is a big change from being home with family. She is shy around others people right now, but that is natural for some kids. I don't think you have anything to worry about. Give her a chance to get to know her classmates and she will start to enteract with them more and more. Good job on encouraging her mom no need to push it, it will come naturally. Good luck!

Um, I outgrew it.
Some kids are quieter in nature, some have a bit of fear of authority figures, some take time to warm up to people. All personalities are different. Give her time to be more comfortable there.
I'm still a little shy with new people but being timid at times has never hindered me. Not socially and not professionally. It makes me sensitive to to others as I can have great empathy for someone that is uncomfortable with a certain situation . . . because I've been there.
I would continue to help her get more comfortable by planning one on one play dates with kids she mentions she's friendly with at school. Just set up a couple hour get together here and there. And maybe the teacher can use her as her 'helper' for a project. Then they build a little rapport as well.
good luck. (I'm partial to shy little ones. I can relate. And I know they often turn into fierce adults ready to conquer the world. Nurture who she is and she'll build confidence to show that to the world.)
