Pizza Party!

Yay! Our social worker brought pizza from Bethel in on Monday. They are half-baked and frozen. My students are very excited. They have all brought back their permission forms and will be back in my classroom at 5:30 tonight. If you teach..... you know this has been a l-o-n-g day.

Our social worker is hired by our school district. He travels to several different schools and tries to help keep us all alive and safe. No kidding. When he has been around for a couple of weeks our school "gets bushy." The kids really have no adults to talk to and Jim has worked very hard to establish relationships within the village. When things happen in the village ---- we call Jim.

It's still cold and now I'm hoping it sticks around. We are hosting two other schools for basketball. If the windchill is below -35 we will have to cancel. You can't travel with school kids in those conditions. In fact, two weeks ago we missed our Saturday games because we had come back home and on Saturday morning the windchill was too cold. Couldn't travel. I was sooooo sad....... HA! A free day! We were so happy.
