The room is set up and ready for the kids! I can't wait for Tuesday. I couldn't have done it without the help of my wonderful wife Jenny and good friend Ben.

In other news, the union has called for a strike on September 10th. While I side with the union in support of teacher's rights, I REALLY don't want to be out of the classroom. I can't think of a single teacher who does. To be fair, I'm surrounded by rockstars, so there's that. I sincerely hope the board and the union come to a fair agreement before the tenth. Also, I wanted to have auditions for Ravenswood's first fall play on the 11th and 12th. Not that it's all about me and my plans, but come on.

Nothing says creativity like a blank slate.  I can't wait to get the new room set up!  The facilities team has been working long and hard all summer moving classroom materials to new rooms.  A big applause to the school's crew for lugging all my books to the second floor of an un-airconditioned building during the summer heat, y'all are awesome.
