24 days of school. Last year, Teacher Appreciation week was lots of fun, with activities every day. One of the activities was that an aide would stay with the class while the teachers watched a teacher-inspired movie. (We watched Freedom Writers.) We got popcorn and water while we did, and 2 blissful kid-free hours. Not this year, sadly, but we do get free lunch on Wednesday.

2) faculty meeting

3) use my dad’s gift certificate to go out to eat
