We Are Back...Hurricane Sandy has passed

Well, that's that.
Not for everyone, of course. A lot of suffering continues.
But our school campus escaped the wrath of Sandy.

I should have probably updated readers during the storm and its immediate aftermath.
But we are okay. The vast majority of our students and staff were not impacted directly. Three teachers lost power, one of whom was evacuated from her place on the Lower East Side. One student I know of lost power for several days.

These past few weeks have been really crazy with Parent-Teacher Conferences (I met with the parents of 28 students), the hurricane, and then grades due. But a certain sense of normalcy is returning as we head into Thanksgiving.

My primary goal now as it relates to this blog is to get anecdotals weekly from fellow teachers. I want to share their stories with the wider world.

Stay tuned and get ready for a ton of great stories--as well as part II of the principal interview and an upcoming interview with the mastermind behind this entire operation of a school...
