It's a Crazy, Crazy World

We had a busy weekend with the girls birthday party. We had a great time, but it left me quite tired for the week.

Monday started of decently, but we ended up having two fights at school (when we normally don't have any) and our online gradebook system was randomly upgraded over the weekend. We haven't had to re-enter grades, but it has been quite difficult to navigate. One of my students is quite ill. He has had pneumonia and is having a hard time recovering. He is WAYYY behind and school is very hard for him. He has been doing as much work at home as he can, but it is hard for him. God bless his momma who has spent so much time helping him do as much schoolwork as possible. We also go the test scores back from the fall testing and they were not NEARLY as good as we had hoped in English. Math and History are fine. Biology scores haven't come back yet. English- not so much. We have been teaching our little hearts out, but the test is complicated and very long. I am basically stumped at this point.

Today was much less stressful, thank goodness. Kiddo only has one more day of in-school suspension, so hopefully we can get through tomorrow, then he can resume his normal schedule. I told him if he didn't get it together, he would be fumbling the ball on the 10 yardline. He is SO close to being done with school.

I have not been QUITE as tired this week as I felt last week. Maybe whatever I was fighting off has passed. We'll see.
