Finishing School





Today is a day for catching up. I feel like I finally have time to do that! This is the last full week of school and next week is exams. Because of that, most of this week will be spent reviewing. Yeah!! This week also marks the more than halfway done with the yearbook deadline. Any of you that have ever been a yearbook advisor know exactly what I'm talking about. A big sigh of relief that the book will be done on time! For those of you who haven't had the joy of making a yearbook, you just wouldn't understand! Because my students have worked so diligently all semester to meet their deadlines and have even been early on a few of them, I decided to let them have a Christmas party. Most of the time these are forbidden on high school campuses, but my yearbook staff is the exception to the rule! So while every other class was sitting half asleep in exam reviews, my 15 hard working kids were cramming down cake, no bake cookies, chips and salsa, and cheesecake. Mmmm, there's nothing like chips and salsa at 10 o'clock in the morning! One of the girls even made Doug his favorite kind of cake, red velvet as a thank you for designing our cover and end sheets for free. I have a great group of kids who listen and work very hard, most of the time! I thought I would share a few pictures of them with you all, so enjoy!
