Hanta virus
The routine at the beginning of the school year doesn’t change, at least in my limited experience. From the outside it appears too chaotic to coalesce into a working system. Unfortunately, it also looks that way from the inside.
As of today, we still don’t have four teachers for necessary classes.
As of today, I still don’t know what curriculum we are teaching for the 8th graders. We don’t have the materials, the teacher manuals, or any training.
As of today, I had 12 missing chairs, so I had to scavenge the scary splinter chairs in the basement from the 1960’s to adequately cover my maximum number of students.
As of today, I scooped/swept about 4 cups of mouse shit out of my room’s closets and corners.
As of Monday, things will work themselves out. I’m not being an optimist, it just happens. This is my third year, and it always works out. Just like in the movies.
