School

Well, it's that time of year again. Waiting by the mailbox for the letter with teacher assignments, getting all the school supply list, finding the "perfect" backpack and me getting geared up for the schedule.

I am thinking of cutting out some of my chairing responsibilities this year. I have several reasons for putting this option on the table. I'm waffling back and forth with the idea and what to cut and what not to cut. Or should I cut it all? I'm a bit miffed, to put it mildly, about the Ice Cream Social being basically cancelled this year. That is a bit reason why I'm thinking about cutting back. Why should I donate hundreds of hours of my time, my funds, my energy, and time away from my family to help make the school community better for the kids, parents and teachers?

My kids, and I, are very disappointed in this and it has put a bad taste in our mouths before the school year has started.

Well, things to think about...
