Yes, other parents would freak. Not this kiddo's. And yes IA's do have it difficult at times. One of the great things about where I work is some freakishly talented IA's. The kids are very blessed and as a teacher I am sooo grateful.

Let us fortify our minds against the tyranny of the dumb ass administrator.
Sorry I needed to let go of my positive balloon for a second, put down the bubbles and just say it like it is.... They are nuts! Flat out crazy. I am doing my job, just as described in the handbook and then being told not to do that. cause really it won't be a problem if I don't. Ummm... unless it is a problem and like last year that didn't work for me or the kids and umm... I am not going to go against the handbook. BECAUSE the handbook is the sanest thing around this place. ![]() Back to letting go and spreading joy. |

TGIF!
![]() What a week! Had to have the SRO (Campus Cop) come to my room twice this week to remove students....ugh! Met with my Principal again about ongoing situation...plain and simple -Sixty to one is not working nor conducive to teaching and learning! On a lighter note - 7th and 8th students played this week! Sixth grade is a bout two weeks out from starting on their instruments... ![]()

This week a student was put into my program who has no chance of benefiting from it. It's just another opportunity for him to fail. It's just that there is no place else for him. I said to the administrator something like, You all aren't under the illusion that this is going to work, are you? And she said no. At least she was honest. Their position is rational in a way. There IS no place else to put him. Still, it's fucked up. |

a couple of highlights ...
Just this week, Azril Mohd Amin, the vice president of the Muslim Lawyers Association of Malaysia said that LGBT rights should be "excluded from a human rights declaration currently being drafted by Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN)," LGBT website Gay Star News reports. ... "Malaysian and those who are against LGBT rights are thereby protecting the human race from the secular fallacy, perpetrated by the United Nations, that human beings may do as they please, within their so-called "sovereign borders" (as laid down by the European powers)," he wrote, according to Gay Star News.

However asinine the symptoms listed are the bigger issue is the impact on how children are treated at home, school and in their families. |
