Hey guys! I am alive. It has been a crazy week of work, being my boys' UBER driver all week for sports and theatre and my DH was away for work. I managed to run 2x and go to CF 2x, plus today I ran 7 miles and then did a bis/tris/abs workout at home.
Have a lot of cleaning to do and then grading. It never ends! I am so happy we are officially in March. A few more months and it will be summer time. My building is so out of control. There were three separate fights on Friday and in between periods 6 and 7, there was literally a stampede of students swarming my hallway looking for another fight. My principal then made an announcement sounding like a freakin' cruise director for Carnival, saying that we will be dismissing by grade level for the end of the day, and that everyone should have a good weekend and how we will miss them over the weekend. WTH? Nothing about the fighting or madness in the hallway. . . like it didn't happen. I am thinking of writing the Board of Education an anonymous letter detailing how crazy it has become in our building and how these failed policies are making it impossible to teach and students to learn. I dread going to work every day at this point. . . this is not a reflection of my teaching; it is a reflection of the administration's failure to create a culture of respect and learning. Sorry, I had to vent.
Belinda- nice job on your workouts. It has been cold up here too, but warmer weather is coming our way!
Deb- Are you doing STS too?
