Default It's raining ...

Yeah, I know, this is Malaysia, tropical country = rain, no big deal right? I have 5 primary schools, 4 of which are kampung (village) schools. A whole lot of kids will be absent from school today, especially kids from the "last" classes.

At our last team meeting I mentioned this to my colleagues, saying I wish the schools would fundraise for raincoats or umbrellas. One of my colleagues (American, elementary school teacher) laughed at me saying that some of them don't even have pencils. Well, if the kids aren't in school, doesn't matter if they have pencils or not.

*sigh*
