Used up all my cellular data, and won't get more until Friday. WiFi is so poor that I wonder if this post will go through....
We have flooding here as well.
We're supposed to get 8" of rain in the next 48 hours. That's crazy for around here.

So, 5th period.
It's been nice for the last couple of weeks because my biggest PITA student has been suspended and the other kids are more manageable when they don't have to posture for the PITA.
Today, I went to the bathroom and noticed a few patrol cars in our parking lot. Five minutes after the start of class one of the deans walks in and asks for the PITA and there are two officers in the hall waiting for him.
This kid has no chance at life.
Apparently he was selling drugs for his grandfather on campus. Some kid stiffed him and grandpa came down at lunchtime to the McDonalds on the corner and roughed up a 14 year old kid. Gossip has it that grandpa is on the run (just recently got out of prison) and now PITA is most likely on his way to juvie. According to the kids, mom is a mess (drugs) and dad has never been in the picture.
I had another kid with similar Homelife in the past but he was a model student/citizen in spite of his circumstances. Scholarship to UC Davis. I wonder what the difference is?
Is there an opportunity to make a point of this future to the other kids in the class?

crazy rain today. Parking lot to classroom and my pants are soaked. The jacket did it’s thing but the pants are soaked.
We have flooding here. So much for the snow we were supposed to get - we got urban flooding instead.
