I only enjoy the "fun" trips. The trips to the local heritage/history/train museum or Children's theater..not so much. Thankfully this year we were strongly encouraged to get the teachers of...
I think I am the only one in North Texas that is actually happy that the snow bypassed us, we just have really cold weather, probably no recess again today. I did not want a "snow day" from school -...
No advice - just want to tell you how lucky you are to get to be involved with the design/planning of your space. Whoever designed the nurse space in our buildings didn't know what they were doing -...

I have a few that I am actually good friends with outside of school - our families get together for dinner, drinks, hanging out etc - so we will exchange gifts with each other. I do not do anything...
Good grief another ridiculus law. Makes you wonder what kind of people have the time to sit around and think up this stuff then have the time and effort to push it
I can't give OTC without doctors note/Rx either, even if it just a one time thing. I have learned thru the years that if you go against policy "just one time" these same people keep coming back for...
