Nothing to do with Technology

What I don't miss about being a superintendent of schools.....


Being at work today and listening to all of the staff asking if we are having school tomorrow!Being at work today and listening to all of the parents asking if we are having school tomorrow!Being at work today and listening to all of the kids asking if we are having school tomorrow
Keeping my eye on the Weather Channel all day long!
Going home tonight and hearing all of the weather people forcast bad weather, forgetting that they are wrong 60% of the time.
Getting up at 3:30 AM to drive the roads to see if we can have school or not.
Getting to school, tired, and deciding not to close school.
Listening to all of the staff whine about not closing school!
Listening to all of the parents whine about not closing school!
Listening to all of the kids whine about not closing school!
Explaining to the TV and radio stations why I did not close school.
Watching TV and newspaper people milling about the schools taking pictures and asking why we
have school!

Holly,

Glad to have you back. I have still only used the Tablet PC for correcting assignements, but it is pretty easy to use for that. My next attempt to use it will be when I attend a couple of conferences in late November/early December. Those are not in China, though :(

Good luck to you on your trip and see if you can come up with some new uses for it over there.

John
