Today is Lice Tuesday. Monday was Lice Monday. Last week was Lice Week. I am drowning in lice complaints, combing and nasty calls from parents. We've not had what I'd consider an outbreak or...
I ask the secretary first thing in the am for the list of absences. Forewarned is forearmed! If i see too many kids from one class I'll offer to come to "talk" to the class. That seems to slow them...

Uh oh, JRRNPNAF, we have a problem here. The sprinkles had the OPPOSITE effect I had intended. The kindergarteners have turned rogue. Think the bar scene from the movie Gremlins. I mean, it's...
I guess my concern is this. You ask if I have guns in the home, and I say yes. You educate me on gun safety. OK, I get that. (As if I didn't already know, BUT because other folks are ignorant or...
From the same student last week: Day 1 - stomach/headache/I don't feel good/I don't want to be here..... Day 2 - I have a pimple on my stomach Day 3 - stomach/headache/I don't feel good/I don't want...
