home visits

My daughter and many of her coteachers did this.  They visiting students' home to encourage them to go to open house.  They think it worked.

Rise above

My brother teaches math in another state.  He teaches an AP class.  There was a mistake in ordering the books.  He needs 60 and 40 was given him.  Since it is a large district, there is a person in charge of book orders; instead of mine where I can just talk to people.

One comment he heard was "she's busy."

He has a valid comment.  "who's not?"
