I'm so over...

... or, more accurately, they are fine for recess, have the "injury" appear when class has to start.

Exactly. It never hurts until math class starts!

I am so over middle kids coming to see me and then their mommies showing up before I can even finish my assessment because they have been texting ALL MORNING LONG. AND - they are c/o the exact same symptoms they had before school in which MOMMY did not give them any medication or even take their temp.

Why was it not a concern before school but it is now???????? The phones need to go. There is no learning being done, only texting!!!!!

So many kids text parent to take them home without seeing me. Probably half of those I send home. Then there are the ones who come directly from the bus to be sent home because if I send them home it is a legal absence. Sometimes Mom drops them off and waits in the parking lot for my call. Can you tell I am weary this week?

At least it is an easy and quick pick-up. I hate when they drop off their clearly sick kid so I can call them for dismissal and be told "but no one can pick them up today - can't they just lay down in your office until dismissal?"

We all know how we feel about that...

I like when Mommy is waiting outside and I dont think they need to go home because there is no fever or vomiting and I send them back to class..they text mommy saying that "terrible horrible does nothing all day" nurse is not sending me home, mommy comes into the school and asks why not??

why not what, I ask?, why arent you sending my snowflake home cause she is sick and it needs to be an excused absence? hmm, she isnt sick...yes she is, my snowflake is very sick and she really wanted to come to school, hmmm, okay sign her out.

mom storms off, student storms off, facebook comments begin....yup awesome..
