We care about out kids. Today, the seventh and eighth grade teachers met to figure out the numbers relating to the state tests, which are 28 school days away. Fortunately, I can't stress about them yet, because science fair is on my mind. But we talked for two hours about how we could push our kids a little harder. There was some teasing, and some comments about the new superintendent, and plenty of complaining, but it really shows that we love those kids.
Today, I saw so much enthusiasm about science fair. At times, I had 80% of the class working, with some even helping others! There was some other crap that went on, and I'm missing a few glue sticks, but they are taking pride in their projects.
I don't have a lot to write today. I'm tired and could really use a weekend. But, only one week until science fair, and it's shaping up really well.
