Blue Monday
Oh Blue Monday! The first workday of the New Year. Arrrrrrrggggghhhh!
Flat tire yesterday. Now a trip to the tire shop. Bummer. Students still out of school, however the staff is in for a "Staff Training" day. I have more work to do then I have the time to get it done. The Network looks like what the cat dragged in after the dog threw it out.
Some interesting articles about educational cheating on standardized tests from Arizona and Indiana newspapers yesterday. California chimed in with an article in the L.A. Times about the High School exit exam due up in 2006. This is a postponement from previous years. That is how it works in Education. The public raises their voice and demands some accountability. The Education establishment passes new rules and says "see - we listen"! The the rules are postponed, changed, watered down and pretty soon they go away. Ever feel like your being ignored children?
The cat is secure
