We had one threaten a teacher the day after the FL. shooting and today we have increased police presence due a "threat" on social media. The threat on social media was traced back to Ohio, but since...
I don't know. I get this answer from LD all the time when asking them questions and it drives me up the wall. Getting information can be so frustrating. Well, now I am the one saying, "I don't know."...

Yes. When I go "home" it feels like I am all alone. My husband is unable to make quick trips with me due to his work and I don't have my church peeps (support) with me. I do have some support in my...

I'm not sure what the answer is about gun control. We do have laws in place now that even when followed to the "t" are not fail safe. I can't remember which shooting it was, but the shooter had gotten...

Not only common, but how debilitating they can be. I have had some LD that have to go on home-bound services due to a concussion. Some of the most severe concussions I have dealt with have been...

Told me thank you for doing a new enrollment hearing test. LD failed test, grandmother had it looked at....Yep, has a hole in his eardrum. Every year after she put something like this, "hearing...
I do like "black gospel" music. While I was filling out paper work for medication for Little Darling she hears my music playing in the back ground. She turns to me with a surprised look and says, "You...

Usually, I don't. They will usually be sent when the school requests transcripts via the registrar. Most of the time I don't even know they are leaving. If they are enrolling onto our campus, we have...

I have called before. Most of the time, the nurse will take a note and call me back. I have also called the parent and asked them to make the call. And with that most times it's a long shot of getting...

With our SOR on campus, I don't get asked to assess most of the time. We went through a training with the Sheriffs department a while back that was helpful, but I only had to use it a couple of times....

We have both LVNs and RNs working in our district. The pay is different depending on which one they sub for. My boss has tried to get it changed, but because we (LVNs) are considered...
This and this is happening, too. Don't you just love it when Little Darling just keeps adding symptoms after you say, "go back to class?" LD with migraines comes in and tells me she has been sick to...

She was joking. She and I have a good relationship. If she wasn't grinning from ear to ear, I would have been worried and took her to the office. She was not up set with anyone. For whatever reason...
