Another day they didn’t show, and people just don’t get how very much I have to do. My principal came in today to ask why these kids who have been absent, have these holes in their attendance record.
Well, gee, ma’am, that would be because I’ve been locked up in my office doing filing and records maintenance and not touching attendance after 11 a.m. every day for the last four school days. That day of the training alone, I have to manually enter attendance for 180 classes.
So now I have to catch attendance up so she can set juvenile court on some parents. Sounds good to me, but I have the 40th day report to get ready. I don’t think she even knows about that yet.
Guess I better tell her.
