I have a student who has recently been consistently late to my classes. I gave him a warning last week that it wasn't permissible but he was late Monday to history (so I sent him to the office) and then late yesterday to history (so I sent him to the office). I usually don't need to give much more than a warning to my kids but alas, this one is apparently getting some nookie between classes so that's much more of an incentive than getting in trouble with Mrs. Hanke. After sending him to the office yesterday, I was forced (by one of my admins because it's the one area that he actually follows the handbook) to give this student a "teacher" detention. My detentions are in the AM so this kid has to be in my room at 6:45. I'm not seeing it happen. Which means I'll give him one last chance tomorrow morning and if he doesn't show then, he'll get an office detention. Not that I really care - doesn't put me out (nor would I let it because I wasn't the one late for class) I'm at school early anyway. Stupid kid.
Long weekend is heading my way. Saturday Jim and I have a dinner party to go to (fondue) and Sunday we'll go to Cooper's Hawk with some of the neighbors. I'm excited and hungry just thinking about all I'm going to eat! I'll have to devote some extra time on the fit board over the next few days.
Maggie et al made it safely to Punta Cana yesterday. Hope they have a terrific time...even though it'll be hard without my company. I don't understand why they keep going on vacation without me knowing that it's their good time is seriously compromised sans my company!
Okay well, as I said, I need to make sure I'm at school in time for my student to
not show so I better get a move on. Jim's snoozing away. He wasn't in bed around 3:00 last night but when I looked at 4:30 he was a lump under the covers. I hope he manages to sleep LATE!
Happy Wednesday! Later!
