Thursday, October 14

 5:45 a.m. - I am woefully out of shape.  I had a junior high girls basketball game to officiate, and I struggled.  The gym was hot and humid, and I am fat and out of shape.  Those aren't good combinations.  In other news, I was disappointed to see the blatant disregard for using masks by the spectators.  It was painfully obvious that there were adults and their families that wanted to make statement by not wearing masks.  I just hope that these statements don't prolong the pandemic or potentially cause a mutation to occur.  And there was no one from the school district enforcing the mask usage of the spectators, which was also disappointing.  We teachers are told to enforce the mask usage, but the administration apparently doesn't hold itself to the same expectations at indoor sporting events.  

Today is presentation day at school, so naturally I woke up to emails from students asking for additional time and "shared" messages versus the students using the "shared folder".  All of this despite the students having over a week to complete the assignment and consistent reminder/direction to use the shared folder.
