Sitting on the Dock of the Bay...

Welcome to the stupidest portion of the year.

Finals.

I have finished grading, packed the room, and am completely ready to leave for the day.

But, I need to be here, not because of any pressing need, or because I am not in a salaried position which is paid for the job, and not necessarily even because there is some waste of time pseudo-thought-out staff development "opportunity" that the school board, with its complete lack of professional experience as educators has decided that I need, but because the work day doesn't end until 4.

One day, someone will actually ask an educator what is needed to run a school.

One day, it will be left to front-line educators, who actually know what is necessary to keep their classrooms working, and what their students need to decide resource priorities.

But it seems it is not today.

So, here I sit... with nothing to do... at all.... *sigh*
