This Guy Is Not Sitting On His Ass Doing Nothing

When we elected a new CL, we got a good one, a really good one. (I also have high hopes for the principal that listens to him.)

I just got the following e-mail and have to share it with all.

Hi POd,

I spoke to the principal today and we are making some changes. First of all, there are groups 1 and 2. The time when teachers are not dealing with groups time will be devoted to lesson planning.

Also, the 90-minute dept.meeting/ class prep will become 30 minutes meeting and 60 minutes classroom prep/ teacher time. The breakfast is optional but you really have to be there at 8 AM. A note should go out with the corrections today or tomorrow.

So don't think I just sit on my ass all day. Even though that's what I'm doing right now.

Trouble in Paradise

For my recuperating colleague who is missing all the fun:

Newsflash: Principal Suit and our Chapter leader are having a lovers quarrel. Yes, the two who have not kept their little tryst a secret are openly quarreling. The CL put a notice in every one's mailbox today telling us that Principal Suit does not respect or even like teachers. Now, to teachers this is not newsworthy. We all know how Suit feels about us. He claims we are family, but does not treat us very nicely nor does he give us any respect. What is newsworthy is CL putting it in writing and sharing his views with everyone. Troubles in the bedroom are usually kept private. What comes next? We'll have to wait for the next edition to come out.
