Monday: The first "official" day

As I walked into the building the assistant principal is writing "Early Dismissal" on a piece of chart paper set up outside her office. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- So Friday was a BS day, and I guess today is one too. All because of a few drops of snow. It was not that bad out. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- So after watching my teacher teach 1st period economics my day is basically done. It would have been done at 11am anyway, but I would have had to hang around an extra two hours, silently reading and going nutzzz. I mentioned my disappointment in not being involved in his 4th period global class. And he said, "Well you have 12th grade 1st period, why do you need another high school class? It would be redundant." I said, "Well, I would love to maximize the time I spent here and gain more opportunities to teach." And he didn't have much to say to that. He knows it's true. This opportunity is limited at best. I guess should be so lucky to set foot in such a prize school that I shouldn't be concerned with anything else really.
