We Hit the Ground Running Before the Announcements

Today started off with a bang and ended with a bang. Three brothers were suspended before they ever entered the building. The resource officer and I had to take the brothers home since mom didn't have a car. After they were dropped off I headed to our district spelling bee to support our campus spelling bee winner. Upon returning I was called down to a classroom because the substitute teacher couldn't handle the class. During dismissal I had to take care of a cell phone issue. Oh... and how could I forget, a parent was arrested during dismissal.. I'm still not sure why.

All In A Day's Work

• Make Announcements
• Go on a Home Visit
  
• Meeting with a teacher, the counselor, and the reading specialist to discuss a student's difficulty with reading. The parent was suppose to be present at the meeting but she was a no show.
• Work on teacher schedules
• Check and respond to 54 emails
• Handle two office referrals

And this was all before noon.

What A Mess!

Today was definitely one of those days I thought about walking out the front door. I had to chase a student that ran out of the classroom. When the student finally made it to my office she knocked everything off my desk, and bit me when I tried to stop her. I don't remember seeing any of this in my job description. All I can say is What a day!!!
