Just Another Manic Monday

• I had to attend a meeting today for kid that, not only do I not know, he doesn't even go to our school. But they needed a "Regular Educator" to sign off so it looked legit.
• I have been appointed as a Mentor Teacher....to a black man who has been teaching for 7 years. What?
• I heard a rumor that our new CEO showed up unannounced to a school, suspended someone without pay for 5 days because they didn't have a lesson plan, and another for 2 because they were wearing jeans. (We don't have a dress code.) I wish someone would realize that leading through fear is maybe not the best idea. In a perfect world, somebody realizes that its not totally the teacher's fault when all students aren't a genius. My school is so messed up that we need people in the building, not people home for arbitrary punishements.
