Home stretch!

So Fall Break starts Friday when the kids leave, and I think I'm more excited than they are! :)

Grades are due tonight by midnight, but I haven't told the kids this. (I've said, "Grades are due this week, so work extra hard!") Muwahahaha. The next 3 days, we'll just be doing review and perhaps the pre-test for next quarter. Luckily this week, the kids get out at 2:15 on Thursday AND Friday (an hour and a half early)! On Friday, we have what's called "Top Dawg Day," which is pretty much an all-day celebration for the kids who stayed out of trouble all quarter. Yay. I made the potential mistake of offering to chaperone the dance for 2.5 hours. Uh oh. We'll see how that goes!

As an aside, I've FINALLY posted some student work in the hallway, and I photographed it. I'll post it here as soon as I get the photos uploaded from my camera to the computer. The projects I put up turned out really well; I'm proud of my students.

It seems all the teachers are hanging on 'til the end of the week. We're as "done" as the kids are! Ha... I just can't believe how fast the first quarter has gone. Crazy.

For now, I mentally prepare myself for my last class of the day, then tutoring, then a few hours of wrapping up the quarter's grades. Cheers.
