I object, and then the principal includes that if anyone can't stay, that that's ok, and I relent. <BR/><BR/>But really, he goes light on the meetings that we are supposed to have, so the only real issue are the people who need to leave immediately for child care or other obligations...<BR/><BR/>As long as no one is put upon, they are not a problem.<BR/><BR/>JonathanAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12216066.post-11080654118391812012008-11-18T22:29:00.000-05:002008-11-18T22:29:00.000-05:00Miss Brave- We got that same bit about the Quality...Miss Brave- We got that same bit about the Quality Review.

There were three items on the agenda, and it boiled down to this: (1) The neighborhood is getting more dangerous, so don't park too far away, (2) there is no money in the budget for substitute teachers, so don't get sick, and (3) all the requirements for Quality Review have changed, so our school is probably actually underdeveloped.
