Tuesday

Ok, Mark, sorry about the dig on Whitman. But I think you understood my general point. :)

Tuesday:

6:30 - Morning stuff, same as Monday but different breakfast.
7:15 - Drive time.
7:45 - Kiss and Ride.
8:15 - Check in with my sub. She's all set.
8:20 - Start marathon meeting and planning day to: 1. Work on grant application for musical instruments. 2. Get roster for my 2-week intersession class, starting next Monday. (28 5th and 6th grade GT/Young Scholars students will be exploring careers of interest and learning/practicing basic communication, teamwork, and time management. I have 14 kids AM, and 14 PM.) Interview all 28 children about their interests. Look for online resources (God Bless 4H). Consult with counselors and GT teacher. Email several outside people. Check out 83 library books on 14 possible careers. Re-attempt to hex the same three printers that didn't work on Monday. Prepare reminder packet for All-County Chorus students that has to go home pronto. Try to figure out why 2 kids I was expecting aren't enrolled in my class. Try to figure out why several kids who signed up for middle school chorus for next year aren't in it now.
2:50 - Recheck with sub. All is well. Help with dismissal. Set up room for dance team.
3:15 - Dance team. 18 sweaty children and 2 tired choreographers.
4:30 - Clean room and set up for Wednesday. Double check grades for a few kids before report cards get printed. Read homework for grad class I'm co-teaching on Wednesdays.
6:00 - Meet Fasih of soccer fame after his practice to make sure he knows how to fill out financial aid forms (Mom speaks little English and has no college experience in the US).
6:30 - Drive time.
7:15 - Gym, supper, read. Put away Sunday's laundry while watching Last Restaurant Standing.
10:30 - Bed.

No problem. Most of us think the place was pretty lame too.
