Ok, I have this math teacher. Well she is my Geometry teacher. Her name is Mrs. Roundy. Which is really funny because cirlces are round and she teaches Geometry. hahah. I think its funny. She is one of the most carefree and fun teachers that we have at our school. She isn't really strict and she always laughs at our jokes and makes some herself. She is like a kid herself, yet she knows hen its time to get down to business. She isn't strict if assignments aren't in when they are supposed to as long as we get them done and understand them, she wants us to succeed. No I know she is probably a parents worst nitemare for a kid. But it doesn't take a strict mean teacher to get accrost to us. Some times all we need is more of a friend-teacher than a teacher-teacher( mean and strict and down to business) And its not like she doesn't give any homework, because we get a ton. So today when class was starting she looks at us, not the usual smile and a joke but with wettened eyes and a frown. She says
" Kids things aren't going to well at home right now, some things aren't right, and I need to be a mom to my kids right now. Mommy duty before my career. So today will be my last day." Can you believe that!!! I love this lady! I cried a little and she said that she would miss us. Everyday I come into her class room I say " Heidi Ho Lynn Longleaf!" ( really LONG story) and now I cant do that anymore. But I do respect her for being a mom to her kids.
So this year I have had half of my teachers leave. Here they are in order of their " Release"
In my Biology Class we got a student teacher, So Monson isn't technically are teacher anymore. So Mrs. Shauerhammer ( I know its really long it is pronounced shower-hammer) has been here sense the beginning of like the second quarter or a little before that. So that is Number one.
Ok now most of you know my history with my History teachers. My real teacher that I have had sense the beginning of school to Thanksgiving went in for back sugery and hasn't come back. So I have had Mr.Gordon, than I have had Mr. Dunne. Now Mrs. Sams. ( Boy do I have more stories to tell you about her!)
And now my wonderful math teacher. What have we done to deserve that? My class ( the whole ninth grade) has gone through so much in the past year.
We have ad 3 girls O.C.D. at my school. Well actually they came back to school drunk and they had overdosed on dog depressant medication. A girl in my classes dad died. And a girl in my classes mom died in a car crash the day before Thanksgiving. And now we are going through teachers like a roll of toilet paper. But we really do have good school, so don't think that my school is terrible we just have had rotten luck. And all this time all I can think is, What have we done to deserve any of this. Then I regret saying it.
And after she tells us the news and all this goes through my brain. And I look to the ceiling and say- God thank you again that you will never leave me, But I think I already learned that lesson. Alls I want is a teacher that will stay with us until the end.
