Well here I sit eager to meet with the parents of my students, and not sure if I should be offended because no one has shown up. Although you can anticipate that some parents don't want to meet with the teacher, perhaps because they never liked school much when they were kids, or maybe because they are hoping if they avoid the meeting then everything will be okay...head in the sand syndrome!
But upon reflection I think it may be because the principal neglected to send a note home to the parents to tell them we were having such an evening.
Either way, I am catching up on some of my marking , even though the marks are not needed until the next report card in March. I just like to be on top of things is all. And besides I know most of the parents we have met on other occasions and if ther is a problem with anything we know we can get in touch in the community. That is one of the bonus of living in a small community.
Information that really needs to get somewhere usually does.
So I will relax do my marking and maybe tomorrow I can sleep in a bit longer because there is no rush to get here to do anything in the morning. Yes you must find the silver lining in everything.
