Need to know: You will be happy to know you missed a full day LEAP day today. At the elementary level we had a UW prof. talk for 2 1/2 hours on autism. The first part explaining a bit about what it is and the range of its expression in kids was OK. Then we are over an hour in with over an hour to go and she says "Only a 5 minute break and NO ONE LEAVE THE ROOM". Needless to say, teachers left the room.
While Secondary had a monotone lawyer telling teachers all the ways they can be sued by the parents of students with autism. Very inspiring from what I understand.
In the Public Sector: Ann had an enjoyable week telling off her boss on Monday after he returned from vacation after leaving her to deal with last week's budget deadline - not for the first time. (I'm considering having a sub the week before report cards are due and leaving in my sub plans - "Do my report cards.")
Episode of the Classroom: A teacher has a sub during important days/weeks of school and writes in the important work for her over eager new teacher sub to do. I.E. set up and conduct a conference with so-and-so's crazy military dad. Or rehearse and direct the school play.
Question for Mandy: Guess we decided we hope to ask our next question in person.
