Hi all. Jed is feeling better. He was up by 1pm. He just ate some pancakes and is now playing playstation with Danny. So thank goodness for that!
Ok now here's the latest drama, Savannah's mini-thon is Friday. She and her teacher advisors reserved the school last year. At the time the new gym was not finished so when they wrote the request they stated all the places in the school they needed and also wrote that they wanted all new construction that would be finished. many months later the girls basketball coach (moron) wanted the school for a tournament that same weekend, starting Friday (mini-thon). The request was rejected because minithon already had the school reserved. They then resubmitted the request with the wording specifically saying they wanted the NEW gym. When it went to the school board a lady in the ed center ( nancy orwig) made sure that the school board thought minithon only needed the old gym and the request was passed. This group was very angry last year when minithon took the weekend they wanted for the tournament and they fought and complained right till the end. Now this year they managed to cheat and lie themselves into getting what they wanted. Minithon will still happen but they are not allowed to use the "new" gym because you know a basketball tournament is so much more important than raising money for pediatric cancer. oh, did I mention the woman in the ed center, Nancy Orwig, is involved in the basketball tournament and her job is to write the requests to the school board, so she knew exactly how to word the request to get it passed. Karma is a bitch lady, you better watch out. The principal, a Mini-THON supporter, is unaware right now that all this crap is happening...he will tomorrow! This is such typical Red Lion bull s#$%. Sports coaches and old cronies cheat and lie and get what they want. There are people that work for this district that should have been fired years ago. Sexual harassment issues, sleeping with students, complete apathy towards teaching, incompetence, cheating...etc.
anyway, there will be MANY letters written to the school board after Friday. But if Red Lion lives up to it's typical way of doing business the letters will make no difference.
So that is the drama for today.
Jed does feel better...I guess that really is all that matters.
Love Jed and Kristin
