Well, Spirit Week ended last Thursday with a great game of Hawaiian Basketball. The 7th Grade boys won and so did the 8th Grade girls but it wasn't enough for the 8th grade to win the "Spirit Day Away" day on May 28. And I also found out in a very round about way, that I DON'T get to go as the StuCo advisor even though it's the StuCo that's paying for it. I guess the "lucky" ones get to have a fun day as the four going are the MS clique. Yes, I am just a little ticked off and I apologize for venting here-I have been very good for the last 2 years not complaining but I am done with some of this stuff.
On a more interesting note, we had the ACO Board Meeting last night with the presentation of the budget and new board member elections. I am happy with the candidates that were elected to the board and feel that they will have the best interest of ACS in mind as they address the needs of the school. I also got to play "parlimentarian" during the meeting. I know, a complete shock to some of you! Things were getting a little out of whack with all the motions on the floor so I asked for a friendly amendment to the motion and then the discussion went nuts! The meeting finally got back on track with the original motion going for a vote and failed so then I withdrew my amendment. I had a good time, apologized to the chair, and realized I missed the MCSS meetings with Boucher and Andrix. :-)
Today I am a wandering teacher as my room is being used for the Language AP exam. I took my 6th graders and 7th to the High School area for class and it's been a little crazy today. I am looking forward to spending the last period in my room today with my 8th graders.
Thursday is the last dance-the 8 Ball in honor of the 8th graders that are heading to other places or to the high school. I think everything is ready, I am just finishing up the pizza order as there 110 middle schoolers coming to this event. Yikes!
Enjoy the day-
