I do love our teachers. I love that they take care of my children and teach them during the hours they are away from me. We are a team. But I have been chuckling about THIS ARTICLE ever since I read it because it perfectly sums up how I feel about the end of school. Last week at Scouts, Freestone moved up to the Webelos. His leader approached me and said, "Freestone has all the requirements to advance, but in the back of the book there are extra things, if you want..."
I interrupted, "I don't. I'm not doing any extra credit."
Touchy! But seriously. If nobody is graded on it, we're not doing it. If someone IS graded on it, we're probably still not doing it. Die, school year, die!!
P.S. I initially posted this without the link to the article I referenced. Trajan texted me and said, "There is no link. Does that count as extra credit?" Ha ha

Amen sister. NO extra credit at the end. We've all had enough.
I love the sign at the school. I didn't even take the time to read it... that's how done I am. :) But.... I do appreciate what they do for my kids. I hope they enjoyed their little bag of chocolate that I sent in the back packs. Hopefully it made it to school :)
Good luck with the last couple of days of school!
Ha ha. I noticed the Memorial Day date but I didn't even notice the misspelling -- and I dropped off a kindergartener every day last week. At least I think I did ...
