Had a kid bring his wet, bloody tooth and plop it right on my desk.

C'mon now!

Or the kid that did running knee slide into my office.

C'mon now!

The ones old enough to cover their mouths but choose to cough right in your face instead.

All together: C'mon now!!

Some things just make me shake my head.

We have one parent that writes the best tardy notes! My favorite one is from the first day of school "It would have required divine intervention to get all 4 children out the door on time, unfortunately, the Lord decided not intervene. He and I will discuss this later as I repent for the sins of the morning" We actually have a stack of the best ones pinned to the bulletin board at the attendance desk. another gem "shoes were too squeezy and socks were too socky"

I'm printing this and giving it our attendance secretary!

Student: (6 minutes before dismissal) A piece of my braces broke off and I might have swallowed it

Me: Well, there's really nothing I can do for that, call and let your mom know so she can call your orthodontist

Student: You can't do anything?????

Me: Ummmm, laxative :roflmao:

Kinder walks in then disappears from sight. I walk out of my inner office into the clinic and he army crawling on my floor with his face on the floor!!! Not 30 minutes ago, another had just spewed his entire breakfast in that same spot.

Kinder jumps up and yells "My belly hurts real bad"

Me: wants to say- I bet it will tonight after the Norovirus you just crawled through has time to incubate, but instead say "No way dude. If you can crawl and jump, you can be in class. No fever and no vomiting means you need to go back with your teacher."

Kinder: That's not fair!

does and about face and bunny hops out of my office-I'm guessing they have a sub today...

Monday morning after Atlanta lost in that heartbreaking Super Bowl game, one of our local tardy excuses was "Failure to Rise Up."

Aww, just saw where somebody beat me to this!

One of our nurses in the district sent us a copy of a note from a parent stating her kid was not feeling well because he had "juicy poops" in the morning....What the heck is a juicy poop???

Some answers are best left unanswered. Even for nurses.

Mom wanted to take her baby to the ER for a 4 drop spontaneous nosebleed. C'MON NOW!! And we wonder why healthcare is in such a mess.

I was going through some old records on one of our kids, and came across this gem. Nurse from elementary documents, "Student came in for change of clothes, had a wet toot."

One of my super BSC parents has the kid potentially in the ICU, maybe airlifted when she is running a temp!!

Student: "So um...on Thursday I was playing basketball and jammed my fingers. My mom wants to know if they're broken"

Me: :borg: "There is no way for me to know if they're broken, dear. As much as I wish I had x-ray vision, I still do not. Your mom would have to take you to the Dr. to have an x-ray done to find out if your fingers are broken."

Student: "Ok. Can you call my mom and let her know that?"

Me: :sarcastic: "I'll be happy to send a note home to her."

Student: "Ok thanks! Can I have some ice please?"

Me: "Absolutely."

C'mon now....how many people do you know that have x-ray vision??

Hahhahahah! I love this. I think the word "fart" sounds so crude. With my kids I say "poof" and when their friends come over and hear it they laugh.
