My 6th and 7th/8th band classes have been preparing for the Veteran's Day program (next Friday) since pretty much the beginning of the school year. We're finally so close to being performance ready! And then they dropped a bomb.
"Mrs. R, did you know that the deanery science fair is next Friday?"
"No, I was not aware of this. How does that affect us?"
"Well, there are going to be 5 people chosen to go to the science fair, and if we are chosen, we won't be there for the program."
"How many of you are entered?"
6 of them.
How many students in total do I have, you ask?
11
Fuck.
So I could possibly be missing half of my band for our first performance of the year. And you can guess who that will look bad on.
On another note, I'm trying to find a sub for next Thursday, when I have my morning appointment at the doctors for the 1 hour GD test. But can I find a sub? Keep in mind that this is over a week away...NO! Apparently they are having a teacher inservice that day and already have 7 subs lined up. So guess who's fucked? You've got it. But if I had tried to line up a sub a month ago when I got the appointment, I wouldn't have gotten an answer from anyone because that would have been too far in advance.
God, I love this place.
