C'Mon Now!

A teacher, who has worked in our school for at least 15 years, is working the Summer school program this year. She texted me this morning to let me know a student’s mother dropped off some paperwork for me. She says “I’m going to keep it in my mailbox for safe keeping, unless you want me to put it somewhere else!” So I text back for her to just pop it in my mailbox, to which she responds “Hilarious, I didn't even know you had a mailbox”

Really?? Why wouldn’t I have a mailbox??

How have we forgotten about this thread!?

I've had 3 Kinderoos take their socks and shoes off while using restroom since yesterday. 2 took off their shirts! New technique?

Had a kiddo come to the front office to get a bandaid for a teacher. Came back a bit later saying it wasn't bit enough and that maybe the nurse should come. I grabbed a few things and headed to the opposite side of campus. Found the teacher on the floor holding together the edges of a deep 2 inch laceration on a kiddo's leg, pool of blood on the floor. Yup, needed a bigger bandaid! Sent him out to probably get stitched.

Oh, Jesus, Mary, and Joseph! Well, kuddos to the teacher for trying to manage it in the classroom and not send "every little thing" to the nurse. ?

PJ Day over here today - I've had TWO kids wearing onesies get the zippers stuck at the bottom of the zipper after having used the bathrooms. Both were only wearing underpants under the onesies!

Miracles performed today: 2 zipper fixes.

In the middle of a medical shelter in place (called over the intercom to all classrooms - only done during a medical emergency when EMS is called) a teacher emailed me, the Admin asst, and principal, asking if we "had a minute" to cover her classroom while she used the bathroom. When she didn't get a response after 7min, she emailed us a second time.

AYFKM?????????? C'MON NOW!!!
