Can't wait....

I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. Summer is almost here! Kiddo's are testing this week.
I really don't understand how a student can sit in a classroom for 9 months and not learn a damn thing! Teachers use all kinds of methods to get kids to understand concepts, but for some reason you still here, "but I don't know anything".
How can states and bureaucrats even consider attaching a teacher's paycheck to how a student performs on a test?
Anywhoooo, I am excited that this year is almost over! This year has been interesting. I actually had a real mix of students, from the really smart to the really ??? challenged (is that politically correct enough).
Can't wait to see what the summer will bring.
Next year will be extremely hard. My son will be a senior and off to start his life. Not sure I will be able to handle it.
I'm sure that there will be more than enough drama to go around during the summer, but hope that it won't!
