THursday was hell day

I was wondering why so many teachers called in this past week even after Spring break. It was registration week and the kids are more focused on registration than classes since it has to be all done by Thursday. So they know no work will be done on time. But what made it worse is that the teacher I had a plan with alot of work to be done in a very short 55 muntes in a test atomsphere but what she didn't count on was a visit from the counselor for 15 minutes that made it impossible for any work to get done that first period. The he told me he as coming for  3rd and 4th period and never showed and he disrupted periods that way. Thes econd period even thoug they were loud and untestlike were very pructive becasue he wasn't scheduled to come in then. THat third block thank God I had the sense to tell the kids to work on their assignments til he came in, becasue he never shoed. Later I found out he became very sick. BUt noone ever inforemd us so we were lost, even after we called to see the hold up. Thye never returbned our call. But that lst period was anothr lose because those were the kids that were coun ting on him and hal;f the class didn't do any work. I hate it. Because that is prime goal every day at least. To get the kids to complete thir assignment for the day. I even informed outr new assistant principal about it. To make it absolute hell I as in the new bldg with freshman once again.
