Handsome brooding vampire guy has to swoop in all sensitive mouth and overhanging forehead. How 'bout leaving some scraps for the homely-looking fellows who don't turn evil when they get some?

I'm trying to give him this week to get crap fixed before I talk to Chief about doing a grade check. He knows that is at risk. I haven't clued KCD in yet either because I'll get yelled at and if he wants to track CJ's grades, he can check on them just as easily as I can. I just have no more energy to put into cushioning him from the fall. He knows he is screwing up and he knows what is at risk...let the chips fall where they may.
As much as I try to let go and let him deal, I'm exhausted over the whole thing and in a funk.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Neither of those sat right with me.
Me neither. Thank you for speaking up.

Because books.
Sometimes that's really the only way they learn, Suzi. I'm sorry it's been so tough.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Me neither. Thank you for speaking up.
It's so much better to come back and read everything at once. Because, yowza.
I'm only drawing animals, because despite drawing better than LeN, I am bounded quite firmly by capability.

I get that what I wrote was culturally insensitive. The fact that the teacher herself is the one who put it that way to me (which I should have explained originally) shocked me and underlined her newness and how she hasn't learned to talk with parents.
I'm stepping away. Not flouncing. The whole grades thing has me so upset I'm forgetting how to talk good.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Ugh. School tsuris is the worst.
For the first time in 15 years teaching, I sent a kid to the Dean's office. For crap he did while I was out, which was basically try to break into my classroom (including putting something in the door so it wouldn't shut all the way). Given last year's debacle come grad time, I am documenting the shit out of stuff, hence a trip to the Dean's office.
In other news, Grace is failing first grade. No. Seriously. Last math test? She had a 1 out of 10.
