    Angry Teachers

    Maybe the child needs a new teacher. Maybe the whole class needs a new teacher and she needs to seek psych counseling. That child may just be reaching out for help but what about the other children in...
  12. Agree with what everyone else has said. I would also add not to speak to her alone again. Always have a witness so as to not be accused of being "mean" or whatever her gripe

    Nurse week, scavenger hunt

    What if they don't have Facebook? I never had a FB account and despise that everything is FB based. Not everyone is signed up, so for the nurses who aren't on FB are they exempt? How does that
