Things have been busy starting the new school year. After a summer of sleeping in and staying up late it is kinda hard to get back into the swing of things. Not just for the students but for me as well.
This year we have 26 students in the high school and 9 students in the middle school. We only have 6 girls in the high school. Just enough to make a volleyball team. For basketball I am not sure if all the girls will be playing. If not we may not have a team. The big question so far this year is: Who will be the Homecomming princess for the freshman class. The class has 3 boys but no girls. In the 25 years that I have been teaching in Jordan Valley we have never had this problem. My class, the sophomores has one girl so we are set. I guess the freshman class advisor will have to decide what to do with her class.
We are currently in a wonderful weather situation. Cold nights and days in the high 70's. For the last couple weeks it has been in the 100's and my classroom was misreasable. With 17 computers my air conditioner was running 24 hours and it still was in the 80-90's in the room.
We have been going through some computer problems. Our computer people change networks during the summer so we are having growing pains. The big problem is that the yearbook file from last year is somewhere in computer limbo. I have asked our computer guy several times it he could tell me how to get to it and he keeps telling me that he will work on it. So far no luck. .
I hope that the growing pains that we have had so far will change and things will go great for the rest of the year.
