Yes, shimsham...I had to re-address the dress code violation issue this week AGAIN (with the 9-12 age group who have been here for several years and know better). After several warnings, which were blatantly disregarded, I finally sent notices to the parents Monday about this. We'll see what happens next week, but I will stick to my guns, accept no excuses, and make the offenders sit out of class. I, like you, am tired of the disrespect and of being ignored. Oh, and that goes double for jewelry and 'No food in the classroom' means just that. No more Ms Nice Guy! WHEW, that felt good!
