Standard Panic Mode

I always tend to get a bad case of SPM at this time. I can keep me up at night (as it did last night). Will the event, Spirit Week in this case, be a success or not, will everything come crashing down and will I end up committing seppuku or some other nasty ritualistic sacrifice of my own person...

*sigh*

I can only wait and hope that students sign up en masse. Maybe I should have lowered the cost of the activities, but my students are convinced that 10$ is not too much, even for an inner city school, and that for most, 10$ is their daily pocket change. My principal believes that maybe 10$ is too much, but I guess we will learn from any mistake that occurs this week.

If the field trips get cancelled, so be it. But at least we had a fun journey and we will have a great week with surprise activities.More pics to come...
