School and Kids

[Guest guest]

Well, I guess I have all new topics to discuss now with the kids. This one came

up yesterday. In my kids school they have lockers, they don't lock them but

never the less they have them. One of the issue they have is in the winter the

floors are wet so they cannot sit down on it to put boots on. They can't

balance on one foot, so its hard to put boots on. We got them little fold up

stool that fit in their locker and they can pull them out to use to put their

boots on and off.

My daughter was leaving for school yesterday and mentioned that her teacher from

last year said loud enough that other kids could hear. " is lazy for using

that stool " . I could not believe my ears, a teacher should not say that about

any kids, in ear shot of other's. Its just not right. Let alone a kid with a

known problem. I was just beside myself yesterday. So of course I write a big

note to the Principal, I want it taken care of but I don't want the teacher to

be singled out as will have her next year. He has a harder time then

and I can't imagine how she is going to react to . I never really liked

this teacher much and I guess now I know why.

The Principal said she will take care it so I hope she does. Only time will

tell I guess.

Thanks for listening,
