HC for the New Year???????

[btb87]

HC students and their parents (or somebotty's parents)?
HC kid comes in here without proper form to register?
HC I tell him he needs his parent(s)' signature?
HC woman gets up from her seat?
HC she starts talking to student?
HC so I tell her that she needs to sign the form?
HC that's what I get for assuming?
HC he starts leaving?
HC I say "You can get your mom to sign it while the 2 of you are here"?
HC she says "I'm not HIS parent, but I am A parent"?
HC I put my arm around her and led her back to her seat?
HC I said "Why don't we come back over here? Here's a nice, comfortable chair for you"?
HC her child that was with her (this one was definitely HER child) and another lady started laughing?
HC she had to laugh too?

HC these students have a blasted schedule right in front of them and STILL won't read it?
HC 1 more week, and this too will pass?

HC btw, Happy New Year everyone?
HC thanks for letting me vent?

HC Soror I am feeling you with the student and parent thing?
HC I too am about to loose my patience with students that fail to read?
HC I have to consistently refer them to resources that are readily accessable?
HC I am determined to teach my students how to fish and not just to feed them for the day?
HC at the end of the day, it feels good when you have helped at least one who is truly appreciative?

HC I'm not mad at Oprah for building her school in Africa?
HC my students would rather dance like somthin' stankin' instead of reading a book?
HC I teach at a school where the number of AA students is 98% ?
HC there are only 5 AA teachers (one of them is a coach) ?
HC I get sick and tired of the other teachers complaining about our kids?
HC I get sad when the things they say are right?
HC people don't take pride in getting an education?
HC my boys think they will all be drafted by the NBA or NFL, or they will be rappers?
HC my girls want to be a video hootchie?
HC I need an Advil?

HC as teachers, all you can do it try your hardest & hope for the best
HC Sometimes parents complain, but can't see where they fall short
HC one time I was speaking w/ a family member of 1 of my mom's friends
HC When I told her that my life motto if "failure is not an option" she was (dumb-founded)
HC She said "what chu mean. . . you gotta fail don't you"
HC I told her that in my mind there is no other option but success & that I don't plan for failure
HC I told her that if things don't work out . . I always have an equally successful plan "B" . . (moving forward, rarely sideways, and never backward)
HC I was raised that way
HC all she could say was "Well I let my daughter know dat she ain't all dat and that a lot a time stuff ain't gonna work out in life fa her"
HC I just kept my mouth closed . . 'cause I wasn't sure if that was a swipe at me
HC at the end of the day . . . a lot of these kids are gonna fall behind in this game of life
HC it's disheartning because years later they may be the same ones traped in terrible job, communities, ect.
HC I just thank God for the all blessing that have come my way
