Re: OT: Therapy on RCTQ was: Re: Not real sure what happened to...

AWESOME!! Thank you so much!! The students will pick the
items/people/things for the letters, but these are great. I think 4th
grade history is focusing up to the Civil War...however, I'm sure Judy
would entertain expanding ideas.
I'm a volunteer - VP of PTA, editor of the PTA newsletter, just tapped
the Chairman of the Health and Nutrition Committee (which doesn't really
exist yet), and this year I actually get to help out in my sons'
classrooms (grades 3 and K, youngest will be at a friend's house that
day). I really like doing things for the school and being involved -
but the school secretary does NOT appreciate me and has essentially
decided to ostracize me for making her life easier....that is making a
LONG and STRESSFUL story micro-short!...so, I don't feel that I can walk
into the building at this point without being on guard. It also seems
that the principal is "taking sides"....the secretary's. Puts me in a
really foul mood - as was witnessed last week by all who are here!!!!!
:-P
