The incident

Monday I was punched in the arm by one of my little kindergartners.

He was mad at me because I was going to give him a yellow clip for jumping off tables.

He ran up to me and socked me in the arm. (I now have a bruise)

I immediately called the office, "I know it is the end of the day but Lynn (the principal) needs to come remove a child from my room right now. He just punched me."

Lynn came right over and talked to the student while I dismissed the kids. I sent his dad into the classroom to talk to Lynn.

He is suspended 4 days. He will be back on Monday

It has been a glorious few days.

Conferences

It's parent teacher conference week. Bittersweet I guess.

Bitter - I have to work late and meet with parents.

Sweet - Thursday and Friday are early release days, the kids go home at 10:00. On Friday I don't have any conferences schedules so I also get to leave early. I get to leave at 10:30!!!
