And ANOTHER school calendar change
We get email today from the principal notifying us that Dec 1, the
monday after T'giving, is now a school day whilst before it was a day off. I give up. I'll just send the kids to school when I feel like it, and the heck with the calendar. Marjorie |

You know, who wants to get up at 6:20 every morning when you could just cruise in at oh, say 10:00 and drop off the kiddies. :-) Marjorie meh |

Our attendance rate is great, but we have a substantial number of parents who bring their children in an hour or more late on a daily basis. My first period class usually is missing at least 2-3 students, who will end up coming in either part way through the period, or during second or maybe third. Similarly, some of the parents start picking students up as much as an hour early. In some cases, these are the same children. Marjorie meh |

Do all of the parents in the district have email connections? Is this how they normally communicate such things? P. Tierney |

I wonder because it wouldn't work *at all* here, since probably a good chunk of the parents do not have email. Hence the question. P. Tierney |
