welcome to March

February was weird. With all the interruptions in the schedule--due to the roof collapse back in January and the ongoing "snow load" shutdowns, as well as the President's Day holiday--we didn't have a single normal five-day week of school at CHS all month.

March offers my students a chance to get back to normal, provided that the recent flu outbreak that's sidelined at least 20% of them is finally on the wane. Normal--at least until the WASL arrives for the last time. My schedule reaches its commitment peak this month, with three weekends consumed by speech and debate, and another full of family celebrations.

In like a lion, they say.
