Notices about class, etc. (was Re: timed tests-school responded ASAP)

January 28, 2010

They can't send you a freakin email?? I had to butt heads a bit with my

daughter's preschool. She eats GFCF so I have cupcakes in the freezer

for her. When they have 'birthday day' every month for all the birthdays

that month, I have to send her in with her own cupcake otherwise she

gets to sit there and watch the kids eat. This happened one time and I

was sooo angry. I get notes and reminders now. Still via paper tho.

Email would just totally fine! I mean it's 2010!!! Green is email!!
