Librarian apology

…wasn’t much of an apology.  But I’m letting the situation go because Rachel is content.

Rachel’s teacher wasn’t in school today.  She had meetings and some appointments.  But she came to the school at 3 to take Rachel to the library so she could turn in her book. 

The librarian told her that she was having a bad day yesterday.  She also told her that she wasn’t mad at her.  And that was about it.

So it was not an apology by any means but Rachel is appeased so I will let it go.  Thankfully, she will attend a different school next year with a different librarian.

Teacher Appreciation Day

Don’t forget that today is Teacher Appreciation Day.  Just a simple ecard is enough to make a teacher feel appreciated.  If you know your child’s teacher’s email you can send one in seconds.  I used some of the cards at this link this morning.  I’ve already had quite a few teachers send back thank yous.  One even told me that it had brightened her day.  A day which had started out really crappy. 

So show the teachers in your life how much you care.  It is amazing how a simple card can enhance the teacher-parent relationship.  And if your teacher sucks…well, send one anyway.  As I love to say, “Kill them with kindness!!”
