I knew you'd read the blog because it's such a great title.
Aren't we funny about things like that?
People are curious. And they say curiousity killed the cat......

I visited Central earlier this week for the first time since 2009. The school looked great. The students were actively engaged. It was a new school....but it was the same stories.

One young lady was wah wahhing about how she'd been wronged by a mean, old teacher. The problem was her tone. As an outsider, I wanted to rhetorically slap her up the side of the head and tell her that she was digging the hole deeper and deeper every time she opened her mouth. Sassy, smart-aleck doesn't do well in the real world.
The teacher's crime. He'd asked her three times to do something for assessment of her knowledge. She refused. After he told her to leave his classroom.....she did the required task....three times. Oh, my!
The angst.

High school kids are just like little kids in big bodies. I got shy "Hi's" and smiles. Doors were held open for me and it was fun seeing the media students creating videos. It's that time of the term....projects are due and groups are working together to design interesting. Springtime is busy in a school. Add the SACS visit, a new superintendent, budget cuts...you get the idea....it's busy.

Oh, yeah....how porcupines make love......very, very carefully.
