Still sick, last time I did this…

The immediate last time I did this I said screw it and posted anyway.

In terms of my sickness, I spent one day “recuperating,” went back to work for a day, ended up with a fever and being out for the next weekend. We’ll see how tomorrow goes, fingers crossed!!

 

Meanwhile, for your enjoyment:

Mandated grade inflation…really? Thank goodness it’s being challenged.

And…of course, wouldn’t you know it? Budget cuts hitting poorest schools the hardest
