    I'm pretty sure my expectations are too high sometimes. If only common sense was

    That's a very considerate
  3. C'Mon Now!

    OK,OK, I have another. If you wake up with pain (headache, injury, etc.) take medication before you get to school! Common sense
  4. Anybody else notice this?

    I think all students should just be home-schooled. I'll hang out in a central office to handle
  5. When is your spring break?

    I'll be here next week. And 4 days of the week
  6. C'Mon Now!

    Kid: I'm nauseous and have chest pain since 3 this morning, but I didn't tell my mom because I didn't want to wake her up but then I texted her when I got to school. And she told me to come to you....
  7. Anybody else notice this?

    We've been crazy since we got back from winter break. I thought it was just me since it's my first year, and don't know any better. But, all the teacher's have been commenting on it
  8. NursePass

    It seems interesting. And if I could integrate it into my charting already, I think it would be OK. But now it looks like double charting to me. Also, I'm assuming that you can pick and choose when...
  9. Dress Codes for School

    Shoulders and knees are covered... you're
  10. Dress Codes for School

    I want to say that I'm enjoying our discussion, Far even though we're not quite on the same page! Although, I really do agree that private parts and underwear don't need to be seen.
  11. Dress Codes for School

    Yes, but I want my daughter to grow up where she doesn't have to worry about what she's wearing contributing to being "safe and sane." Where no one ever questions her worthiness or safety because of...
  12. Anyone working this Summer?

    I'm contemplating trying to pick up some PRN gig somewhere, but I'm not working too hard on finding that. My daughter will only be in daycare 2 days a week to maintain her spot, so I won't have a lot...
  13. ADHD Tips for Teachers

    Over the past couple of weeks I've had students brought to me because they've forgotten their ADHD medications in the morning. There's obviously not much I can do in regards to that since most of...
  14. When is your spring break?

    March 25th through April 1st. I am beyond
  15. ADHD Tips for Teachers

  16. Medication refills

    I send a letter when I have a week left of meds. That way they have the refill paperwork that needs to be filled out,
  17. student feels warm....

    I really want to tell teachers that we have handy-dandy tools that can measure the body temperature of our students that will give us an accurate read out in numbers! Makes it easy to read and all....
  18. Phantom boo boos

    I kinda stare at them in a judgmental way. Do a quick (but good!) evaluation. Then I explain that they're not dying, I'm not a walk-in clinic, and they need to seek a medical evaluation from an MD...
  19. Parents who can't/won't pick up kids

    Students have to have a certain amount of time in class to get credit. It doesn't matter if it's excused or unexcused once they reach that threshold they don't get credit unless they appeal. I know...
  20. I have my own audiometer, but I think it's because we absorbed it when another school was closed. It's also probably 10 years old. I have my own budget and order my own supplies as needed. One of...
  21. Dress Codes for School

    No, I'm saying that the dress codes are set up with male clothing as the norm which creates a system for girls to be targeted (unconsciously, I believe, but makes it no better) which perpetrates...
  22. Malingering Monday

    15 and several phone calls (plus I haven't been alone yet today!). Ugh, I don't want to be here either
  23. Malingering Monday

    The same reason the kid who puked this morning in the car came to school. And then puked 2 more times in 1st
  24. Medical marijuana in schools

    I agree with DeeAngel that because it's illegal federally, it's not something I would feel comfortable with administering. And I think because of that fact, most school's wouldn't even want it...
  25. Elementary, Middle or High School?

    High school. But sometimes it feels like elementary
