Hoods are not allowed to be worn up in side the school. That being said... I don't know if its a regional thing or all across the globe, but teens now a days (jeez i feel old) seem to hate all things...
Ya, my office size has tripled, went from 1 cot to 3 (with privacy curtains), cupboards galore, private bathroom, separate office - I don't know what to do with myself
Yes, I am having my Behind-iest year also! We moved into our new school this fall and so I have spent alot of time getting organzied (and really just enjoying all the room!) I'm done with...
My teachers are pretty OCD about cleaning their rooms, especially this time of year. In most rooms, part of the end of the day routine is passing around the bottle of wipes and each student wipes...
I frequently have staff stopping in for temp checks, throat/ear checks, blood pressures, bandaids, etc. I don't mind helping them if I'm not really busy, it goes along ways in building a good...
I have a newly built office this year and its a similar set up. I have my main door into the hallway which I keep open except when I'm on lunch. Then there is a door that opens into the staff...

I was hired over summer break, so the outgoing nurse came in for 3 hours and showed me the behind the scenes stuff. I had been a sub for her previously, so I knew the day to day stuff. Still had...
I posted a project to be funded at the beginning of the school year and it just got funded! Yay! To be honest, I never considered it until our school encouraged us to when they heard that the...
I'm in the midwest and we had a blizzard come through last week. We got an early dismissal on the 10th, and no school on the 11th. Earliest I ever remember a snow day! Its all melted though now...
I usually carry some personal stuff around in my purse for down time. I meal plan/do grocery list, work on our budget/pay bills, do some internet bargain hunting around the holidays (gottadeal.com),...
I have some window clings up for fall. My treat bucket gets changed out to a pumpkin. For Christmas I do a little more. I have a little tree I put up, more window clings and hang some garland...
Our contracts run for the whole year, not a 9 month time span, so here yes, if staff give birth in July, they'd be ok taking their 3 months and coming back in
