lost power today for the whole afternoon- while I was in school teaching!
what an afternoon- the lights went out right before lunch and didnt come back on until we almost had topack up for the day. I have to say my kids were very well behaved considering. the classrooms were lit because of the large windows but the hallways were dark. We turned into a halloween adventure!!

Re: lost power today for the whole afternoon- while I was in school teaching!
Still no contract?? My mom got something in the mail a few weeks ago listing all the things the district was offering the teachers and I have to say one thing did stand out to me, which I think would be great, you probably don't agree, but it was the part that you would get raises based on merit. There are so many old stinky teachers, one imparticular that was in the classroom next door when I worked there and she deserved a decrease, sitting at her desk, teaching from her desk all day, never getting her big azz out of her chair ONCE. I think teachers like you, who bust their butts would benefit from that, but some of those teachers arghh.. just ticked me off and admitted they only went to work each day to collect the paycheck and that was their own words. Anyways, I hope everything works out for you soon!!!
