I thought it was strange enough trying to wait out and resist the person currently occupying the white house. But now things have gotten more bizarre with the same person trying to bully students, families and teachers and other staff back into school buildings. Thats what were dealing with. Thats what its come to. Today we will be absorbing our fall learning plan. I know many will find aspects they will object to but this will find solace in the approach.
